I’m 26 and also live at home. I like spending time with my family and have over 100k in savings, so I’m not bothered. Don’t worry about it!

My brothers still live at home, in their mid to late 20s, and I may move back later this year and I’m turning 30. That being said, do you have 100k in a savings account? That’s a wasted opportunity imo

im only 23 but im definitely planning and staying with them until 28-30.
Im saving a lot of money and just enjoying family time. I really dont see anything wrong with it. Im nit planning on moving out until i get a house withmy boyfriend

Shame on you!

Haha shame on you! The amount of money i have from living at home and paying rent on a household that has more than enough bedrooms to and is paid off...well Im just using something towards my advantage from a system thats constantly trying to fuck us. Ill buy my abode when the time is right. I love it!

It’s good to ask/share thoughts/opinions but this portal would defeat your purpose to get anything out. People are diverse here from different countries with different upbringing/ideologies. For me, it would be a blessing to stay with parents for the entire life but not for the other person. For some of us, money would always be secondary, so there will be who would shame you for asking such a pathetic question. Such questions are always personal and you should understand based upon your principles and what makes you happy.

You clearly misinterpreted this, he/she’s saying other people might have that opinion and that you should ignore them

My SO adds very little to our relationship. She has a dead end job. I cook. I work. I oversee finances. I plan trips. She doesn’t have a voice in the relationship. I’ve asked her to give her perspective but she always defaults to mine bc she thinks I’m smarter/worldly. She feels intimated by me and my social circle. Lately, I’ve found myself thinking for her. Anticipating her wants and needs and then adjusting my behavior to meet them. Which she appreciates but it’s frustrating 29M 27F
