Should I stay home or move out?

I%26#039;m in my second year of college and my original plan was to go here for 2 years while living at home,save money and transfer to a university in another city.But my college is a really good school that offers degrees, and has great opportunities. I%26#039;m traveling abroad for pennies this year becuase of it, and next year my same club is going to China, and this is a club of people going into my career and in the trips you network with other people in your career field. Also the profs are really great, and becuase of the small class size i%26#039;m doing great and have gotten scholarships every year becuase of it! I%26#039;ve saved enough money to avoid student loans so far, and still work during school to keep it that way.I%26#039;ve met great people and have a social life,but I hate living at home. I want to go to a new and cxciting city, adventure, and just finally be free. Is freedom worth leaving a good school? My city is really expensive to live in,a friend lives in a room in a basemnet for $400 a month.

Its really about making yourself comfortable. I mean it sounds like you have it great being at home, but trust me I KNOW about the call of freedom...its hard to ignore. Best I can say is weigh the pros and cons....can you really afford school and to move out with all the bills and not take out student loans? If you moved out would you have to work more hours? If you worked more hours would you still be able to socialize? I would think it would be hard to pay rent and study abroad at the same time........



I live on my own and have for years......I transfer in Fall of 08. Im moving back home because I would rather have that rent in my pocket than to spend it on rent just for the sake of being %26quot;free%26quot;....but I also weighed the pros and cons for myself before making that choice.........moving in with my mom won by a hair.

Well, what your doing now is great, but keep in mind, that having a truly exciting college experience may be worth taking out some student loans. However, if you%26#039;re happy with your current college, and it keeps you out of debt, you should really think about sticking to it. If you%26#039;re planning on getting an advanced degree/going to grad school, that might be the time to venture out. good luck. I%26#039;m sure whatever decision you%26#039;ll make will work out.

Do not leave home. Live at home and work, put that money away so when you do move out you can put a downpayment on a house. In many places the cost of an apartment is not much less than a house payment and you don%26#039;t have anything to show for it. Paying on a house builds equity, while renting is just throwing money away. Take advantage of the situation you have now to take the time to save. One of the biggest mistakes students make is to graduate with a bunch of student loans. Do you really want to spend years working and paying on loans for school when you could live at home and be debt free when you move out. Think about it.
