Hey NT, is 25 y/o too old to be living with your parents?

Its funny because half these dudes that are saying 25 is way to old are about 18-21. Don't worry when I was your age I would think the same thing untilreality hits your **@ and you realize sometimes your childhood dreams and expectations are way to high...

whats so hard to believe?
I moved out after HS, went to college on football scholarship and have been on my own since 17.
I know people who have moved out and just worked and never returned.

Yea dont worry, just go at your own pace. Get yourself a stable career, save up for down payment, move out/move on in life. That's my advice.

Nothing wrong with it as long as you don't plan on continuing for 10 more years. I'm only 20, but I envision myself living at home for the first coupleyears after I graduate and start working....just to save money paying for rent, and take some time to get settled. Probably move out sometime between 25-30y/o...ideally speaking.

Do You Bruh. Dont listen to these children on Niketalk. If your parents allow you to be there stay there. It's a smart move. Saving money and going toschool. Kudos to you. Its good to see that some people on this board are actually thinking about their futures. Lifes more than having the fly kicks and latesthypebeast clothing. But word to you guys that keep talking about going to school and then coming out and then buying a house. Sounds like a good plan. But Goodluck man times are ALOT different than they were, things don't always work out as planned. ALways have a Plan A.B. and C.

Nothing wrong with it, do what's best for you. I don't plan on moving out until about 31 or 32(I'm 26). My folks don't make me pay for anythingexcept for groceries, so I'm able to save about 30k each year. The way I see it I'll have a few years of living expenses in the bank, while also beingable to buy a house and pay it off in a short time. (none of that 30 year crap for me) Most of my friends that are "independent" are basically livingpaycheck to paycheck, and I'd never trade places with any of them, but like I said different strokes for different folks.

we all leave the nest at different ages. there is no set age that you have to be out. i was ready to move out last year but then the economy went to @%@*, workstarted getting slow (mind you, i had the money to leave and be good for a year) but i decided to stay a year to help out my dad so he won't lose thehouse. work has started to pick up a little and im still planing of leaving before the year ends. im 23.

exactly my cousin wants to get an apartment with me once he graduates high school..
i was living with two friends in new york (bronx) living paycheck to paycheck..
basically just for rent and i still couldnt do it..i had to leave school and work
SmH i shoulda moved down to FL with my mom when she left..
now im down here living with her and starting school at a community college at the age of 22..
Trust me living on your own is cool but you have to be able to pay everything off and still have cash, most of the people who move at the age of 18 are eitherreal lucky at the job they got or have their parents pay for stuff or hustle hard...

its easy for me to believe its possible to move out young. what i don't believe is that everyone in year claiming to have moved out at 17 really worked forthe oppurtunity. it's different if an empty appartment is handed to you compared to if someone is in school and working a job to have anough money tosupport themselves. scholarships are tricky. yeah you did something well enough to get someone elses money, but its still handed over. nothing like a goodheadache when nothing is handed to you and you're struggling to make ends meet. feels um um good!

im 25, living at home....appllying for jobs left and right, bc i just finished school last year.
once i get that steady income of a career, im out.
busting %%%, at a restraunt to pay bills = not what a good life sounds like.....im straight upstairs in the parents house.
plus my girl stays over and i come and go as i please.
really no problems.
like others have said, if youre doin something with yourself its all good....... sittin at home, screaming on xbox live all day, is NOT ok....
