How many of you still live with parents, work full-time, and save (or invest) almost all of your money?
I'm 26, make 85k a year and literally spend maybe 5% of my salary, the rest goes into stonks and savings account. I really don't even have the desire to buy anything. Still drive my 2006 Lancer that I got in highschool. So how common is this lifestyle among you? I'm thinking of finally moving out soon.
baste, make sure you get birthday gifts for your parents and let them know you appreciate them

Me except I make 40k, and couldn't afford to move out even I wanted to unless I felt like living paycheck to paycheck.

If you have no partner then stay with your parents if they don't mind. It's free real estate.
Take out a mortgage and buy real estate, after the coronacrisis is over and you still have a job.
Camden Ortiz
Identical to you, similar age and salary, similar low spending, also still driving my first car (2008 altima). Most of my friends are like this as well. Same with gf. Only low class white people move out of their parents house at 18 because they need muh freedumbs
Liam Jackson
28, make $50k, I did this for a few years after college but moved out at 25, regretting it but I really don't get along with my mom when we're living under the same roof.
Jeremiah Davis
Wish I could but parents lost the house back in 2009

OP this was a savvy financial decision but you need to move out for two major reasons: 1) you can't mature / progress emotionally if you're still living with your parents 2) you're already 26, some of the best wife material has already been claimed, you need to get out there and find someone to marry so you can live a full life and also so you can get a 50% discount on rent

These EXACT two points are what is pressuring me to move the fuck out. It is scary to see time tick away. I actually work remotely, which makes finding a gf/social group extra hard. I have no idea where I could find potential wife material and it honestly scares me.

all women are whores. if you work remote go to ukraine and you can knock up models for exchange for a house. save your money and keep working from home
Andrew Ross
Tempting user, I will admit. Since I can work remotely, I really don't see much of a fucking point working in the US. I was considering Hungary, and even Vietnam.
Cameron White
damn. I turn 26 next month and still haven't graduated college
Owen Jones
You should buy a house when you have enough for the down payment
Michael Brown
i lived in vietnam the past 6th months AMA. Id rather marry a ukrainian girl though
David Johnson
I have to pay a bit for rent to stay with parents, because they're poor and they need the money, but its cheaper than an apartment and I get all the free food in the fridge + my mom's delicious dinners. Because of this I probably have a bit more bitcoin than the average Yas Forums poster.
Jaxon Sullivan
1. Did you make new friends in Vietnam? If so, how? Foreigner or Vietnamese friends? 2. Monthly expenses? 3. Do Vietnamese women come easy if you are a white westerner with money? and are they faithful? 4. Worst things about Vietnam?
Ryder Taylor
23 and same, haven't even really gone for real though ( community college)..Amy suggestions one how to unjust my life?
James Hernandez
Considering moving to vietnam in around 8 months, travelled SE asia a fair bit but not lived there. Going to rent my flat so will be earning £750 a month after payments, is that enough to live on in Vietnam? Will be doing other stuff out there writing building businesses etc but for the time being? looking to spend about £400 per month ideally.
Thomas Peterson
30 year old kv here who has a decent job and lives with my parents. 75% of my net worth is in crypto which I continue to invest in every month. My goal is to retire by 35.
Elijah Lee
How much money do you have in crypto user? If you are studying something useless, learn web development. If you are studying something useful, obviously transfer into a decent uni and prioritize internships.
Carter Lewis
I did cc as well. Finished at 23. Transferred to real uni last year, think I'm technically a junior. Paying my way though and it feels like a total fucking scam since I'm not going to an ivy
Josiah King
>How much money do you have in crypto user? Around 100k
Angel Morris
>joined military at 20 >got out 28 >live w parents >saved like 100k in checking account >built no credit buying everything in full (car phone etc) >have about 10k in crypto snd retirement >waiting for housing crash to buy a house
Angel Collins
You have a long way to go if you want to retire at 35 user. Need around 2 million if you are in the US. Maybe 750k but that's skimping quite a bit.
Daniel Morris
Men generally get better with age. Stay in shape, make money, and date younger women. Problem solved
17 about to turn 18, going to state university and will have to pay almost nothing out of pocket, have a completely restored 89 Nissan EXA that will last forever, and have about 1k to start investing immediately when I'm 18.
Bentley Scott
>web development Anything specific? It sounds like good advice considering what I'm doing
Xavier Reed
The shittier the investment, the longer it takes. Businesses are the true sign of making it. You don't make 10x your investment a year in your main income, you aren't retiring early without living like a hermit.
A $2m investment would make me around $3-4m/year of income based on my current business returns. Even if it only make me $500k it would still blow stocks and crypto out of the water.
Brody Jenkins
I'm in Europe so 1 million is enough for me. I just need the crypto market to have another bullrun and do a 10x. Call it hopium but I think that this is likely to happen within the next 5 years. I have nothing to lose at this point so if things don't work out then I'll just buy a rope.
Isaiah Bennett
what are you doing to get consistent 200% return? Not sure I would do the same, but good luck bro. You should look into retiring into one of those poor Eastern European countries and 1m should be plenty.
Jonathan James
>Not sure I would do the same, but good luck bro. You should look into retiring into one of those poor Eastern European countries and 1m should be plenty. I'm on mobile so my ID is changing. If you're under 30, crypto has the best risk to reward ratio. In 5 years time I will have either made it or will have lost everything. Not taking the risk is worse because you're guaranteeing that you will have to wagecuck for 50 years.
Ian Diaz
Which coin would you recommend that's not super risky or sketchy? I will look into it.
Hunter Cooper
Same here. 2008 really fucked me up.
Fear and inability to get a decent job until 3 years after graduating university made me extremely frugal. I make a decent living and the most luxury I spend on myself is a upgrading or getting a new computer ever 7 -10 years and a driving a mid range car. I'll never own a BMW for as long as I live. I simply want a car that doesn't make me look poor. A Civic is a good enough car for me.
Payed off though. I'm looking to buy a house in the next year or two. Really hoping prices come down thanks to Corona-chan.
Xavier Kelly
I wish. 19, 60% goes to bills, 30% stonks and 10% food kek
