[quote=Anonymous]Different strokes for different folks. If some kids want to live with their parents after college, ok, that's cool. My brother did that and he's still there. He's 41. I would not have been able to do this because of my pride and need for independence. And that's ok too. I have had roommates, sublet a studio from a friend for next to nothing to live on my own, shacked up with a boyfriend, etc. It was invaluable for me to learn to live on my own, pay my own bills, hustle when I needed to, be independent. I once had 5 part time jobs while being in grad school to be able to live on my own. I couldn't put a price on it. I have plenty, plenty saved for retirement. I could not live with a parent like Singletary, who is probably going over their bank statements and making sure they donate 10% of their income to their church, that their big purchases as justified (according to her), that they take on NO debt, etc. I would explode.[/quote]
