[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]As a continental European, I think it's normal to live with your parents in your 20s, especially if you are in college and grad school - most campuses do not offer dorms, and renting rooms is expensive, so if you live within commuting distance to school, you stay home. This is what my cousins, friends and I did, except the ones who came from the countryside and were forced to rent. One acquaintance rented in a nun's convent, apparently they let rooms to young women. Then I came to the US for grad school with my boyfriend, now husband. Lots of young adults in Europe and Asia live with their parents after university until they can afford a home, because real estate is so expensive there compared to income. [b]This is perhaps not the norm in this country, but it may soon be, at least in high COL areas of the US.[/b] [/quote] 100% Some of you all need to check your expectations. It's expensive and difficult for these "kids" coming out of college. [/quote] Quite frankly, it is the smart financial choice for most "kids". Live at home for 1-2 years and save a good portion or pay off student loans. If you get along with your parents and your parents treat you as the adult you are it can be a nice time [/quote]
