I'm 25 years old. Should I expedite the process of moving out? Am I a late bloomer or?
My plan for a couple of years is just saving & saving.. Making $16 an hour at USPS right now....
You should had been move making $16
Man some of you guys are lucky. In my family you get kicked out at 18 years old when you graduate high school rather you like it or not
Had my own place when I was 19 years old. Always been on my ever since with no savings except maybe one paycheck.
I had to grind. I couldn't count on my mom or dad for money. Dad was a social crackhead mom was a drinker and on SSI. My dad would throw us extra money every now and then like every year but it wasn't nothing
I still traveled partied, clubbed . And had girls at my house almost every day between me and my best friend
Back then when I got my first crib I was making $8-$9 a hour. Rent was about $500-$600 a month.
Got a better job at factory and was making $14 a hour for a few years. Got Lauer off and got unemployment. Chilled on unemployment for 2 years $1300 a month.
This was when the economy took a dump..
Had my best friend as roommate it's was 4 of us total, we had a big house. 2 moved out so the friend who rented the house wanted me to split the rent down the middle between 2 of use. House was like $1300 month . I'm like I can't do that ,I would 've paying $1000 or more with other bills and car note.. I moved out then with my girl on university campus paying nothing but like $200 a month..
Shortly after I bought my own house well we did
You guys got it easy. I don't no of any one that their parents allowed them stay permanently after they turned 18.. I almost hated my mom for dang near rushing me out., she even called the police on me when she got drunk to get me out.smh
Nobody taught me to save... Nobody taught me about credit and to invest, this is why I try to guide the youth now, us older people go through the struggle so u won't have too
Listen to those elders
Don't have kids at all if you can avoid it lol and especially don't have a baby moma and remember if you have 3 kids with your wife etc.. if you divorce your paying child support up the butt. Listening to those old heads complain how they left with $50 after child support made me strap up each and every time
