When did you leave home ?

[Loochi]

Was reading a thread last night about some dude who lives with his mom and 2 brothers. (one younger and one older)

Anyway, I'm sure most of you saw it so I won't bore you with the details but I couldn't believe what I was reading...

Can't believe the mother makes them pay rent and if they can't pay, well then basically they're out of the house...

I stayed home until I was 27 and I could have stayed longer if I wanted to. My parents welcomed me with open arms and if sh!t hit the fan, I can still go back there if I wanted.. Same thing goes for my wife and all the Arabs I know.

You Westerners got it tough yo.

I could never kick my kid out if they can't help me pay the rent looool. Wtf.

Inb4 op is a manlet spoilt brat etc etc

[IronILLinois]

i'm still at home. 26. my two younger bro's live with me. my mom spends 2-3 nights a week here. probably be out sometime in the next 3 years.

edit: dang mirin' avi

[DJGirth]

living at home > everything

23 and live at home crew. company, a space that actually feels homely, cheaper, can save up all your money and invest and do whatever

quite literally the ONLY upside of having your own place is to have people over/pussy on tap

rent here for one small bedroom is $1500+ a month. srs

I moved out just after 18. My mom wasn’t very nice at that time. So I left. It was hard, but I learned a lot of responsibility. My mom has changed a lot over the years. She wasn’t the best mom when I was a kid, but she’s more than made up for it. I moved back home for a few years after my divorce. When I moved out she got really sad because she missed spending time with me. We talk on the phone every few days.

That's the thing here in NZL.

Most people leave at 16 or are forced to leave which makes it hard for them to 'make it' - some have done it, but it's a rare case.

The Chinese have it pretty good from what I hear. Parents help you out until you get a house and can comfortably pay the mortgage then you look after them or invite them to your house when they get old .. So on and so forth.

Pretty neat IMO.

It is beyond pathetic that people continue to live with their parents when they are fully capable of moving out, and their parents aren't physically dependent on them. It's pathetic on your parent's part, and it's pathetic on your part for not WANTING to live life on your own. holy chit

btw, I was one month shy of 19 when I moved out.

[Mook1e]

Left at 17, the morning after my Senior Graduation Party.

Why is it pathetic on my parents part ? Because they loved me and gave me enough time to get my **** together so that I'm ahead of 95% of the people ? I'll be doing the same for my kid/s - lol. Just lmao at your parents. Treating you like a work mate or a friend

"Hey, get out in 6 months plz."

"Yo if you don't pay some of the rent you're out."

It's pathetic that they didn't do their job as a parent and have you ready to leave the nest when your wings developed. Chit, even if they helped pay your rent at your new place that wouldn't be as bad. And where are you in life at the moment that you can say that you are ahead of 95% of people? Let's here your accolades and accomplishments that is better than 95% of people that is a result of your parents assisted you with?

[CanuckGame]

Not suprised there are a lot of miscers still suckling on mommy's titties at home. Bunch of *******.

moved out at 18 and never looked back.

[EdwardTheGreat]

18 years old. Parents were worried and upset about it...if they had their way I would never leave LOL.

Worked 2 jobs while living on my own and going to college...was on my own until mid 20's, lived with a chick until late 20's, on my own until marriage at 38.

Being on your own as a young man is literally the GOAT. I was looking forward to living alone the rest of my life but one chick I could not see ever walking away from so married now to a beautiful wife with whom I have the most beautiful child.

In B4 dear diary. If you stay with your parents, do everything you can while you are there to take advantage of the solid base and ensure a good future. If you leave home early, bust your ass for that same goal.

lmao you're jealous.

Don't worry mate. I look at some people who had it even better than me and be like "fuarrk that's pretty sweet"

Both of my parents are successful as fuark and lol at you thinking they didn't do their job. How would you know ? What, because they didn't force me to leave at 16 like yours did.

I had real loving parents. You had flat mates it seems.

Let's be real here, most people living at home as adults aren't squirreling money away into investments and setting themselves up for future success. Chances are they're squandering the opportunity, buying designer chit, plugging money into a nice car, partying/traveling, etc etc while mom and dad are paying the mortgage on the roof over their head


If parents are successful and their kid is actually doing the right thing, that's pretty much ideal but it would be the exception and not the rule

[MinisterOfLust]

When did my wonderful mother kicked me out of the house? Oh, I was only 16.

Thanks.

[CanuckGame]

Believe me. No one is jealous of a silver spoon ******* who's a grown man still suckling on mommy's tits.

[mchabs]

until 24 (does not include 2 years living at college prior)

parents did not force me to leave, it's just something i wanted to do

[chino3]

jealous of what? Not suffering from arrested development due to parents failing to prepare me for life? Jealous that my parents had confidence in me moving out, working while going to school, while providing a support system if needed? You sound like a regular Billy fukking Madison. Trust me, as much as your parents may love you, they are disappointed that you don't have the desire/ability to seek a life of your own, and that you aren't even doing what the below poster wrote. You aren't saving up every penny and focusing 100% on your studies. You're just being a leach. Billy, fukking, Madison...

I moved out at 23 (went to local college)

I then moved back when I was 29 and stayed until 32, saved for a house. Moved out a few months ago.

No regerts. Parents are cool AF, didn't have to cook (mom loves cooking), rent was cheap while I saved for a house, helped my dad do a bunch of chit around the property so he didn't have to hurt his body any more than he already has.

But it is nice being out on your own, for sure.

[drvillain]

17 years old. Stay at home for as long as you can. I cringe when I think of how much I could have saved

[Loochi]

Lol - I'm on my own now mate. Trust me, YOU are jealous

Bro you make it sound like I was just in my room playing computer games all day and didn't want to study or work.

For the record, I went to university, got my degree, working full time now and I never wasted my money on designer sh!t or cars etc. I wasted money on supps but it was money I earnt from working while I was at uni.

Why would I trust you though ? Everything you've said is incorrect and most likely talking about yourself lmao

Lol what ? You sound so sure of yourself so I assumed that you are relating all this to your own experiences (parents being disappointed) etc

Moved out to college a few months before 19th birthday and never looked back. I visit home every year, but after a week I'm ready to GTFO. My mom's mental issues has gotten worse since the divorce so I'm avoiding that chit show.
I honestly know some 30+ folks with master degrees that are living with their parents and they are still trying to "find" themselves. Cuck parents I tell ya.

disposable income... Is that a foreign concept to you?

[behavenow]

my Mom kicked me out when i was 19, because she wanted to get rid of us (me and my 2 sister, my brother was only 11 back then and my mom was ok with staying with my younger brother but wanted to kick me and my 2 sisters out) so yeah i left the house and had to live with a 31 yr old stranger roomate for a while. my mom was kicking us out because she wanted to live her life to the fullest with her new boyfriend

[Loochi]

disposable income... Is that a foreign concept to you?

Ahh I see. Gotchya mate.

Your parents were so lazy that they wanted you out ASAP hence why you went off and got tats etc. Just didn't have the right upbringing I guess.

Can't fault you for it hehe

[crupiea]

I graduated high school when I was 16 because i had a ton of extra credits from working after school at an ROP job repairing wood wind instruments. It gave me a bunch of credits so i could graduate early. I also had a full time job after school or as close to it as I could get.

My parents had been working on staring a business in another part of the state so they basically moved to do that right after I graduated to do that. I moved with them but the clock was really ticking as i was basically and unwanted house guest at that point as i was basically an adult.

I moved out a few months later so i guess I was 17. Moved in with my bussied ex con step dad so that was interesting. he was an old school so cal white boy low rider who taught me a different perspective about officials and such. Loved that guy, not in that sense, he was not like a dad but much more a mentor. He taught me the benefits of getting drunk during work and the like.

Lost my job and had to move back home. Got a job working for my Moms boss and he was an ex Navy pilot so a few months later I was in the Navy.

Came out 20 years later.

Pro Tip- Get the hell out from your parents house and live your damn life.

I have never really had a good or high paying job, the Navy i guess but no one says thats a good paying job. I dont work at all now at a job, I am an artist and just do my own thing. if i need some money I will get a part time job.

Marriage will ruin the middle part of your life, just deal with it and get through it, The good thing is, they rarely last forever.

That makes a chit ton of sense... parents were lazy which instilled a strong drive for independent success for myself... Sounds like coddled child logic right there LOL.

BTW, didn't even get my first tattoo until well after I bought my first home lol. But seriously pal, let's hear how far you've come in life. Let's hear how your parents set you up for success, we're all dying to hear!
