so, i'm thinking about getting an apartment
 

but living with my franparents and not having to pay rent is so much better. what do you guys think is better? having your own place, but not being able to spend as much... or saving moneys, but not having your own space? just curious.

If you can afford it and still save a decent amount of money, go for it. Independance = :cool:

i'd be able to save half as much money, if that, which would probably only be a couple hundred dollars a month.

independence > money

you think so? so according to your statement, it'd be better to barely make it on your own than to than to be able to save up for a house down the road. riiight.

I guess it depends on your situation at home too.

If you can live at home without big problems, and you know how to keep your money... Stay at home. There's nothing like having enough money in the bank so that you can do what you want when you want (within reason).

i have lived on my own since i was 16, so i think you can guess my response......

move out and make more money :oh:

many of my friends who have graduated have moved back in with their parents. i don't intend on doing that. also because my parents said "don't come back here after graduation"
