[maxximus1]

lol... you are a "part owner" of a single restaurant...

I OWN AND RUN an IT firm based in beverly hills...

Built from the ground up

I hire and train my employees

Serving Santa monica, Beverly hills, Los angeles, Orange county, San Bernardino county....

Cellphone store and repair in San Marin

Just opened an Art Gallery with my friend in Beverly hills

Off Rodeo Gallery @ 420 N camden Dr.

Come by and take a look, we can have a drink at hakkasan down the street where I know the owners because I manage their payroll system in a few countries.



started from nothing too, but I'm not hype off a single restaurant... you know how many restaurant owners I know?

Beverly Hills? Oh ok I get it

Trust fund baby...

Too many people would rather have money for shoes and going out than have their own place. To each their own.

I just didn't wanna be 40 years old still in my moms house.

Staying at home with money to go out and being in your own place with no money to do anything living paycheck to paycheck are both bad scenarios to be in. tbt IDK which I would want less

Word, I have goals that I'm going to reach. I used to think that was normal. Through talking to people my age, I learned it's not that common to have long term goals. By age 30 I will own a home.

 

[Master Zik]

25-27 is one thing but 34?

I wonder if this accounts for ppl who moved out early and through various circumstances were forced to move back in before 34.

many of my cousins fall into this category

I would rather do the latter.

Having your own place is awesome and you just have to be creative when you go out. So you kind of have to adopt a minimalist attitude, just get what you need.

Let's be real, a lot of people are living paycheck to paycheck because of materialistic reasons. Living on your own forces you to scale down on a lot of things.

 

[sunshineblotters]

^what do you do that is "scaled down" for example?

 

[maxximus1]

I'm from east oakland.

moved to long beach for school then dropped out...

mad side hustles for a few years

Dad lived in compton and was hooked to crack, had to hit the dopehouse every once in awhile to pay his debt...

Worked my way around LA doing mural proposals for my graff homies and building my design skills

Transferred that to web design and IT

Met my girl and moved to LA, Rampart and 3rd

Networked with business owners and the korean, jewish, persian community

Ended up meeting a publisher with property in beverly hills, He started paying me a retainer to just stay in the area and answer random tech questions...

everything blew up from there...

That's the kicker, who will back down?

 

[Mark Antony]

Yeah be careful who you choose as mentors. These guys are supposed to be well off but acting like children.

 

[dabottom305]

On a related note, obviously a lot of people in here will disagree, I know a lot of people living on their own who told me to enjoy living at home as long as possible and to take advantage it.

 

[maxximus1]

Damn it

Yup. Living at home will afford you excess spending cash, which people usually blow on dumb **** anyway. Now you can afford to go out 3-4 times a week, spending money on that. You can afford those 2-3 pair a new nikes that month, you get my drift.

Having your own place makes you "plan" events more than before. You can't just go out on a whim like before and blow money like its nothing. Deals are sought out more often, happy hours are appreciated, and suddenly those 2-3 releases you used to fiend for just don't seem important.

I still have a nice chunk in my savings in case I wanna go on a trip or splurge on something, my end of year bonus and tax refund help me out big time.

Having your own place makes you "plan" more than before

Responsibility.

I see the exceptions to the rule, but get the heck outta your momma's house. She needs space too. Has anyone looked at it from that angle? Of course she says you can stay as long as you want. That's your mother! Be a man..Shoo.

[zapatohead408]

^what do you do that is "scaled down" for example?

I still live at home with my old man. I was a Teller at Wells Fargo making good money for a kid with no bills/responsibilities. I had a lot of it chilling in my account. I would eat out, when I would go out, I would buy useless things, etc.

Now I'm getting back on my feet after being unemployed. Still planning on living at home until my apprenticeship with the local Electrical union begins. Don't really go out too much, no concerts, bottles of liquor, etc. Gonna contribute to my 401K.

Once my apprenticeship begins, I will do the same and save half of my paychecks, AT LEAST for the first couple of months.

many of my cousins fall into this category

*looks at location*

well there you have it. Most people I know who are out of the house AND with money live outside these big cities tbt

My cousins didn't move out because they didn't make the best decisions in life, not because of housing prices.

 

[651akathepaul]

I still live at home with my old man.

^ I was just gonna bring this up actually...I wonder how many in this demographic stay with both mother and father, just mother, or just father. My Dad would've kicked me out quick. My Mom..Not so much.
