I moved out when I was 17 and it took me a long time to realize how a-typical that was. But it was so normal to me to have a job and be self-supporting.

So I really fricked up in my 20s- dropped out twice, failed my state exam once, finally made it, then dropped out of my postgrad and went straight to the psychiatric hospital, followed by years of unemployment and a bit of alcoholism.
I STILL moved out before I hit 30. Redditors have no excuse.

I cannot comprehend the flyovercels in that thread posting their rents and talking about how they are paying +$3000 to live in an apartment in some dump like Tennessee or Ohio. You can easily find way cheaper nice apartments of the same size in world class cities with better jobs, living standards, education and better everything else than where these redditors live except meth purity and mobility scooter availability. How bad do you have to be at apartment hunting to frick up that hard?

No point saying it again because there's some people out there who do not want to hear it and can't accept their own failures.
You get a job. You work hard at it and do well. You get a better job and do the same strategy. You continue learning new skills and pushing and improving yourself and then by the time you're in your thirties you should be earning loads and be moving into a bigger house.
It's hard to even relate to these people. Doing the above isn't hard and all the people IRL I know have also managed it. Redditors must be a subclass of loser who I don't interact with IRL so I find it impossible to understand exactly what they're doing wrong.
I don't even have a very good degree. What you do in your career is more important than what you do in uni.

30, Reddit? Fricking 30?
21, ok, 25ish if you’re in NY/LA/SF etc., but otherwise, literally how? One could work part-time at like a buck above minimum wage and save up enough for a hefty down payment on a house in the TWELVE YEARS between becoming an adult and turning 30! And even that should be harder than getting enough together to rent a room or get a place with a friend (that, of course, would require having friends, so that’s out for many redditors)

At 21 you can have no college degree, no skills, a ton of debt, and live in a very expensive area, and still be able to move out of your parents house (with roommates) on a retail slave wage.
How a person has not bettered themselves at all by 30 is beyond me. 9 years is plenty of time to move into management without even trying. And that would be if you passed on the million or so other options to move into another field.

You're going to have to explain the insurance cost to me, both of my cars that have wildly different values cost the same to insure
Jump in the discussion.
No email address required.
States vary wildly but for a given underwriter, it has a lot to do with their experience with that car and who you are.
Teenage boy with an Impreza WRX? Insurance is expensive because they know you're going to wrap it around a tree.
25 year old girl in a CR-V? That shit will never go above 50 and damages will be minimal when she bumps into another girl in a Rav4 at the Starbucks parking lot.
Technology helps, too. We replaced a 2010 Mercury Milan with a 2022 Ford Bronco. Even though the Bronco is worth 20x as much and weighs more, the insurance is cheaper because it has emergency braking and pedestrian detection while the Milan just had BLIS and a reverse camera.

Might go up, might go down -- Pontiacs are driven by a lot of teenagers which makes it higher-risk, but Corollas are a lot more common and more likely to be repaired rather than salvaged.
