1. Standard of living. It's more expensive to move out because the world now runs on cell phone plans and excess insurance, and yes you need those things to have a career. Also inflation and every little thing is more expensive.
2. Standard of the working class man has skyrocketed. It's not the 80s anymore, you can't just get fired from a job and find a better paying one on your way home accidentally, and all with your high school diploma. You need a 4 year degree or you're a joke today. Also college is more expensive than ever (see 1.) and curriculums are more scrutinizing with less leniency in GPAs (with regards to maintining studentship) and more diversity in the actual studies.
3. Go fuck yourself you over privileged old fuck the world isn't set to easy mode anymore and it's your fault

Because the house is large enough and because the parents are very happy to have me (I pay my share of the expenses). My mother always appreciates help in the kitchen while my father appreciates a helping hand around the house and in the garage.

Living in the countryside is nice. The only real drawback is the commute to work, but if you avoid the rush hour, then commuting to work on nice twisty roads with a motorcycle is a good way to start the working day.

I couldn't imagine living in the city in a small box of an apartment, surrounded by loud neighbours or streets. And pay absurd rent.

>>
>>80608206
Because it's the best option, and because my family loves me.

Housing prices are ridiculous. Even without bullshit like cable, and even eating a diet primarily consisting of bulk dry rice and beans, you're going to wind up blowing an obscene amount of money on rent and utilities. And for what? To live in a roach-infested crackhouse with five roommates you hate and only cohabitate with in order to split the rent and utilities? Fuck that shit. My other option to be "self-sufficient" would be to live out of my fucking car and get a 24-hour gym membership to shower, and I wouldn't feel safe being homeless like that.

There's nothing wrong with families living together. I don't understand why, at 18, people are thrown out onto the fucking street and expected to rise up from nothing. Kinda makes it hard for families to improve their stations in life over the course of generations.

This way I'll be able to actually make some decent net income and pitch in as the people who raised me age. This way, maybe we'll actually be able to pay off the fucking house, or failing that, maybe my kids will. And when my dad gets old, he'll be welcome to stay with me and help with my kids instead of going off to a fucking retirement home.

Parents shouldn't toss their kids onto the street when they turn 18, and people shouldn't send their parents off to "homes" when they get old. I swear, both are symptomatic of the destruction of the family, and it's bad for us.

THIS as well. The jobs are in the metropolitan area, where rent is obscenely high. You have to move to a metropolitan area to get a job, and they'll even make living locally a requirement. To afford the rent of living in a metropolitan area, you need to have a job. To have a job, you need to live in a metropolitan area. And so on.

Again, FAMILY. There's no reason why siblings, cousins, aunts, and uncles shouldn't always have a guest bed or a couch available to their family members.

Nope. My shop as well as others have apprenticeship programs. Most people here have no machining experience prior to entering the program. There is a difference between an operator and a full machinist but due to lack of real machinists in the field, operators are having to do. You start out arpund 15$ at hire but are bumped up to over $22 in just two years. Plus somebover time you can do well. My shop is actually one of the lower paying shops too.

>>
>>80612104
>Exactly this. I'm not sure when society turned, but several generations of people used to live in the same house.

Asian families do this traditionally. Hispanic families do this traditionally. You have an abuelita living in your house, she has decades of experience raising kids, she can cook, and she's got a reason to live beyond fucking bingo and keno night. That's the old guard.

Meanwhile, the parents don't have the gall to evict their own fucking kids, and the kids don't have to start from nothing as a result. They can pitch in with chores, babysitting, paying utilities, etc., and even if they don't, a shitty 30k a year job or a small investing venture becomes something they can build off of since 90% of their expenses aren't going down the fucking toilet.

And if the house originally belonged to the grandparents, even better. Now mom and dad (there had better be both) can actually finish paying off the house and the family OWNS something instead of making payements forver without ever accumulating assets. And again, failing that, they can at least put a dent in the mortgage and leave their kids to put in another dent or pay it off.

And the benefits of the family support system should extend beyond the immediate nuclear family, too. If there's one solid, loving nuclear family that actually gives a fuck about family, then when a cousin's parents die or fuck up royally, they can at least have some stability instead of getting a shitty start in life. Cousins should be like siblings. Hell, there's nothing wrong with an entire household of cousins being raised like siblings.

My grandparents did it right, and this is why my family is going to be fine no matter how shitty the economy gets. Because we won't be alone, and we'll actually own things.
>>
>>80612913
Hell yes. Of course i cant speak for all shops but you should see some of the people we hire simply because there are so few looking to learn a trade. This is something Mike Rowe is spot on about. Granted, trades arent like they used to be but hell not much is. Ive been doing this around 10 years now and make over $25/hr. I dont drive fancy cars or live in a mansion but i do alright and have plenty of time to spend with my kids and teach them about the fucked up world.

I feel like I missed a chance to get in early here. When I graduated in 2011 there was hardly a single cnc job in 50 miles, now we've got atleast 6 manufacturing places with lots of cnc jobs.

Give it a shot. Things may not be the same in your area but i do know that many places are findingbshortages when it comes to your classic trades. Hell most people on the street dont even know what a machinist is.

This idea that everyone needs a 4 year degree is bogus though. You can pass out all the free degrees you want but its pointless if there are no jobs for them.
>>
I still live at home because it was that way I could just take over the rental contract to the apartment when my dad retired and move out of the country. That's a pretty sweet deal when your entire country is undergoing a severe housing shortage that'll probably take many years to resolve.

I know people that have been in the queue for an apartment in my city for years and basically have no hope of finding anything even remotely as sweet as what I've got.

I moved back in with my parents because I finished my contact at work (no reason to stay in my overpriced apartment in the city anymore) and am about to start graduate school overseas, so they wanted to spend a couple months with me before I left. Does that count?

>>80613996
Unfortunately going through local CNC jobs once again all I see if le 3 years of experience as an operator required minimum, not a single offers apprenticeship or a single looking to train someone.

Pretty ridiculous considering not one of these jobs offers a new degree earner such a position. If I had a degree and no experience, I'd still have no fucking choices. I'm glad these faggots have no skilled workers.

Put some apps in anyway. A lot of shops want experienced machinists for obvious reasons. But shops that have aprenticeship programs will usualy take good prospects if they find one. The economy is rough right now, regardless of what obama says, so stay vigilant. Try looking for a general labor job as well in a machine shop. A lot of times they will move someone up if they show competence. Best you can do is show a foreman you are a good worker, ie on time, willing to learn, not an idiot. It cost a company a lot of time and resources whenb hey hire a peace of shit. They like to promote from within since they know something about those workers. Dont give up though.

It can be. I was actually raised in a broken home, away from my grandparents. Actually, if anything, my siblings and I raised ourselves. I jumped on board with my grandparents and my larger family after being isolated from it by my broken nuclear one for like a decade. I intend to model my own life after what my grandparents did, because I've observed both ends of the spectrum, and I've seen that their way works.

You can be the first, anon. Build a nest egg. Begin paying off an actual house. Raise your kids right, and don't boot them out. Start something intergenerational.

All of society is going to have to do this without a reference in their own upbringing if western society is going to survive.

Because I can't afford to live on my own, pay for college, and attend college at the same time. Also, so I can help my mother with bills. Moving out before you graduate college is for morons who are so obsessed with being le ALLGROWNUP that they are willing to put themselves under massive amounts of debt. There is literally no harm in waiting to move out as long as you are in education and employment.

>implying a nuclear war wouldn't have done us good

Growing up in a booming post-war economy, a terrible war that would have weeded out the weaklings in our population, a generation that has actually experienced the horrors of war and doesn't fear imaginary boogeymen like "the wage gap" or "misogyny", a generation of subservient women that reject feminism and stay at home, etc etc.

Does this really sound worse to you?

The weaklings would have stayed home during a war.

If anything, wars weaken the gene pool. Brave and hard working men go off to defend freedom, and the rejects stay behind on medical passes.

Scandinavians leave home at a young age and in high rates. But the difference is America lacks jobs, available housing, healthcare and the American education system is sub-par. American cities are dangerous places and guns, criminals and drugs are very common. Kicking your children out of home in America is like sending them to Africa with nothing but the clothes on their back.

Because societies naturally revert to that way. Throughout the vast majority of human history individuals lived with their families until they were married, which makes a hell of a lot more sense than buying a house or renting an apartment when your parents already own a house with room for you to live in.

The real reason this is looked down on is because the baby boomers were lucky enough to reach adulthood at a time when the economy was booming and the housing market was growing at an unsustainable rate meaning it wasn't hard to get a good paying job and a cheap house. So they look down on their children and grandchildren for not being as successful as them in a time where economic prosperity requires more economic investment and time for less success.

FFS the factory I worked at in college literally refuses to promote people to management positions unless they have a degree. You want to be a factory floor manager and have worked at the factory for 20 years, know every job in the section of the factory like the back of your hand? Well apparently you would make a shittier floor manager than a 25 year old who has worked at the factory part time for 2 years while getting his business degree.

You understand that unless a country has firm housing markets that can accommodate the dream of someone renting by twenty and owning by thirty, then it's not ideal.

Most know that this shits nebulous and always changing. Whether someone lives at home or not isn't so much the issue you're getting at but the attitude adjustment required to live on your own that a loooot of fucking youngs just don't ever get or learn.

Adjusting to a better work ethic and making your independence work is what matters.
If you're at home and you're not using the hospitality of your folks to the fullest and pooling it cash, then you're doing it wrong.

They're lucky, when I was 19 my dad told me I had to fuck off so I ended up working, living with him only for a few months and then I took off to the Navy. No time to sit and wait, he told me I'm a man and need to leave, it was that simple. I understand living with your parents for a short period around that age or below, but once you hit 20 if you don't have a place of your own you're a fucking loser, I'm sorry. Most men in the past had houses and families by the time they were in their early-mid 20's.

Exactly this. The whole point is to build upon the success of past generations, not start over again from nothing each new one. I don't know how that idiotic meme ever got started. All that matters is long term success. Purposely doing everything the hard way is not productive in the least.

What are you on about? Independence and self-sufficiency is a Jewish meme? That's news to me.

>>80608206

I'm in my early 20's and most of my friends seem to be making $15-$18hr including myself. I make roughly $680 a week times 4 equals $2720 a month

>33% ($897) goes to taxes
>$65 month for car insurance
>$250 month for health insurance
>$500 month for rent
>$120 a month for groceries
>$100 a month for gas
>$100 a month for car repairs/ house hold maintenance

Grand total of $2030 dollars in expense leaving $690 a month to spare. Without taking raises in account, it would take 173 months; or 14.3 years to save enough money to purchase an average sized home in a suburban neighborhood. Or, you could stay at home, cut your rent in half (or totally if your parents are nice) reduce your grocery bill as well as your maintenance bill

But what if I have a well-paying job and I still live with the family?
Why does everyone have to search a housing if the housing market is failling and debt is lurking everywhere, and is rather relying on the stability and success of multi-generational homes?
>>
>>80631936
I'm pretty sure that it's been covered that if you are gainfully employed full time, and you are living at home out of tact, rather than necessity, the argument doesn't fall upon you.

Then again, one would wonder why the thread would be made at all if that was the case.
>>
>>80631936
Personal housing is an element of independence and self sufficiency, ergo it is a value inherent to manhood and maturity. It is part of the cycle. Debt and the fallibility of the housing market are new hurtles and are unfortunate, but that should not serve to stop you entirely. Millions of hard working Americans (including myself) get past them and eventually get their own housing, and this goes both now and in the past.

You don't have to agree with me I suppose, I'm a stranger on the internet, and call me old school, but to many "men" now days don't deserve the title, they're children in grown bodies, and I think what I stated above plays a part in that.

Also I hope your pic is not meant to contribute to your argument. Adams was talking about independence from the English and the harsh financial penalties they imposed. I love Liberty over wealth, so I chose to endure financial hardship so that I could be a man and have a place of my own.

This has always been my conflict.
I see friends who still live with their parents and they are doing fine, they have jobs and travel like no big deal, basically they see their parents as roommates. Then you have others who live by themselves and sometimes they have to sacrifice many things, they have to sell their stuff or have to find a roommate in order to survive another month, funny enough, they mock anyone who still live with their parents because they see them as not being mature enough

My sister still lives with my folks because he plans is to inherit the house because she likes the house, still has a job and has her life without my folks stepping in.

Meanwhile I decided to live outside, I am sharing it with a friend, not a well located place but is affordable and have rooms for each one, sometimes when I visit my parents i want to stay a few more days since it feels more homelike unlike the apartment but going back could mean giving up or feel pathetic.

It sucks how society has the mentality of not living by yourself = not worthy, not mature or not for relationship/marriage. Then again I just like to live far from them because i feel is different to share your taste with someone who is not blood related
