I had zero support system when I moved out on my own and yes I survived, but look at the cost of things and guess what it isn't fucking inflation Its fucking greed!
My first place was a 2 bedroom duplex that cost me 300 a month. Not best neighborhood but in 1997 not bad. Fast forward 2001 working at Walmart had a one bedroom apartment for 360 a month. Go look that same apartment today. Just looked it up fucking 958 for same place. That place with inflation should be no more then 600. How the fuck do they expect anyone to afford that at today wages?
So yes he is adulting best he can. But promise he wont be 21 still living at home. Shit I hear kids older then that are. Some 25 year olds with college degrees are trap at home.
I'm in the Los Angeles area. Studios are going for $3,200/month LMAO
Well for Athens Texas that is way out of reach. Were taking small town here with no industry. They have a community college or did when I live there. But it was a town of old money that refused to let the place grow.
Give all your belongs to to the poor.
Do it right now.
Don't reply to me. Just do it.
