Feels great! Home for the fun half of the week and appreciate it even more. I used to be worried I was missing out mon-wed but have gotten to the age where really no one does anything all that interesting those nights anyways...

I couldn't justify at the beginning, so I stay with the parents in the past 5 years, save a lot of money. But I am at the point that I want my own place, so planning to move out this year!!! Pretty excited about it.

Spending close to $2k/month is brutal when you're never there, but I LOVE coming home. Prime location in chicago, live alone, amazing views. It's worth it considering the work we do, in my opinion

I live in Chicago and my parents live in the suburbs, if I lived at home I would never go to the office, wouldn’t network, wouldn’t go out with friends as much. So I’m very glad to be living in the city and therefore don’t care about spending the money on rent

Useless. Can you stay with parents or airbnb your place out?

Where did you buy/rent for those with homes?

Sometimes you don’t have the option to live with parents, especially if you’re in a different city
