[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My son is also 24.  He graduated from college in Dec 2019 and we suggested he live at home for a year and see where his social life was compared to his job.  Plus, he could save some money.  We said he could if he put $3k a month into a savings plan- over and above the 15% he is putting into his 401k.  Covid hit and he is still living at home.  He works here too as and not had much of a social life since Covid.  We have set next June as a target date for moving out.  He is still working from home, but I expect that to change in Jan.  A bonus of Covid for him is that he has saved more than the $3k month. He just got a promotion and last Jan started a Masters through his employer - online first as a result of Covid. So, he should be set.

I am glad he did not have an apartment from the get go because he would be alone in it and working from home alone.  [/quote]

Do your neighbors know how old he is? The main reason I want him to move out is because I just don't know what our neighbors are thinking....   I am pretty sure they are asking himself why is  Andy still living at home when he graduated college etc... [/quote]

So let them wonder.  They are probably also thinking why you can't lose a few pounds, why you did not buy a better car or whether your husband is cheating on you.  Are you going to worry about that too?[/quote]

NP I guess it depends on your neighbors. I don’t really wonder anything about my neighbors. I don’t give them more than a passing thought, certainly never wonder about weight loss or affairs. My neighbors actually did have a son (early 20s) living with them and I truly never considered it. [/quote]
