Because Australia's housing bubble hasn't burst yet and thanks to my local/state government deliberately releasing almost no land for new development, stalling/stopping redevelopment of existing suburbs all while trying to attract people to the city, rent is absurdly expensive.

(but I lived out of home for 4 years and only move back recently, and will be moving again in ~march, this time to a different city)

You already know, it's because I'm a fuckin' failure. And satisfied.

the bubble isnt from housing restrictions man. we have more houses than ever; growth in dwellings has exceeded growth in population since ww2. the housing bubble is from speculation. its the cunts in the real estate market looking to keep it going for a bit longer who talk shit about a supply problem

Yeah I know. Negative gearing, those stupid grants and the absurd situation where capital gains are half of normal income tax rates.

- there is restriction where I am though (Canberra) but it's unique. It's pretty much the only place in the country where rents come close to justifying prices in terms of discounted cash flows. (as in the choice of renting + saving vs buying is seriously unclear)
But that'll last about an hour once the banks go, austerity bullshit begins and they start slashing the public service.

Hodgkin's lymphoma

:::::CAUSE:::::
There are no guidelines for preventing Hodgkin's lymphoma; this is because the cause is unknown or multifactorial. A risk factor is something that statistically increases one's chance of contracting a disease or condition. Risk factors for Hodgkin's lymphoma include:

* Sex: male
... * Ages: 15–40 and over 55
* Family history
* History of infectious mononucleosis or infection with Epstein-Barr virus, a causative agent of mononucleosis
* Weakened immune system, including infection with HIV or the presence of AIDS
* Prolonged use of human growth hormone
* Exposure to exotoxins, such as Agent Orange

Uh, graduated university in summer. My applications to even minimum wage jobs get ignored by employers.

I'm stuck here til I can get work. And that is proving almost impossible.

Mom is dying of brain cancer. Slowly. So I left my great life in Toronto to move back to suburbia to take care of her as she deteriorates.

That's why I'm over 18 and living with my mom.

I make 54k a year as an engineer and am 27 years old. I have a wife and still live with my parents. Am waiting to have 500k in the bank so I can buy a home with no loans and then have a family with my wife.

Most of my friends that moved out at 18-23 are very broke right now. I have no regrets, the japanese stay with their parents till they are 40ish

>>371057157
Imagine how dissapointed your parents became when they found out you were coming back home after Uni, when they in fact thought that finishing Uni would make you a man.

>>371057157
Same shit - except I managed to get an award (err... minimum wage for a specific industry) wage job I could have got right out of high school.

I guess that's the difference between a country with a 'strong' economy and one without now - grads here get to work in shitty menial jobs instead of being stuck in the dole queue. OH JOY

Living at home is much easier, I work (Mechanic), I pay to live with my mother, she does my washing and ironing, cooking etc. I know how to do all that crap but I'm simply too lazy and would rather sit and play Skyrim all day than get off my arse to wash clothes.

Why the fuck make life hard on yourself when you have someone willing to do all the lame shit for you?

Fucking noobs.

Unemployment is the worst it has been in something like 17 years. Graduate unemployment is really bad too, but I have no comparisons for that.

Thankfully they understand that it doesn't really have anything to do with me. Everyone else I know that graduated in summer is still trying to get work - at least I'm not the only one.

I start a second degree (distance learning) in January and I've been learning C++ (incredibly slowly and badly), so it's not as if I'm wasting ALL my time.

I don't live with my mother, she lives with me

In 4 years you some how made, and lets forget living expenses and buying luxuries within that period as I refuse to believe you never spent any of your money on food or luxuries or clothes or even tax, 214k to buy a house. There is no way you were 51k a year as of turning 16.

I don't need to justify myself to you, I don't even know you, and I don't care to

http://CXL.me/ml/virp

I "lived" with my parents until I was 21.

The amount of hours at home was minimal.

Money is the thing. No one usually gets enough cash at their first job to move out , and if your in the US that may never happen..because the US is actually a 3rd world nation

People do what they can, no problem.

>>371057969
yeah people talk shit like all the time here too.
Not extreme, but you get people talking about how they had no problem whatsoever paying for a 600k home on a single income, but neglect to mention that their parents loaned them half the money interest free.

>>371055076
One of my parents is legally disabled, and the other isn't far off. So they live with me and their small paychecks help to pay bills.

>>371057388
I know a few people who did what you did. They stayed at home till their early thirties to avoid financial despair. Wanna know what happened to them when they finally got their own places?

Well, living with their parents half their life had stripped them of every bit of responsible thought. Their mortgage wasn't smaller than mine either, because I had paid down more than half. They ended up financially retarded, and their places looked like complete and utter shit, because mommy wasn't there to clean or cook.

>>371057969
I guess its feasible he didn't buy the house outright and actually just got a mortgage.

Don't knock it. I wish all the time I had not bothered with higher education. Waste of fuckin time. Most of the cunts I went to school with that didn't give a shit, disrupted classes, harassed teachers and left as soon as they could are earning (relatively) good money.

I have an honours degree, a second degree course starting imminently, and a trip to the dole queue every two weeks.

Because it's their fault I'm on this planet, I'm certainly not working for a living.

>>371058393
>I guess its feasible he didn't buy the house outright and actually just got a mortgage.

true, in which case they don't actually own 'their' house and don't have anything to brag about.

>>371057969
Woah there, I have a mortgage, you retard. I had €60k saved up, so I currently owe €154k.

My current salary is €67k a year (remember, this is Europe, not america with your shitty salaries), so the mortgage will be paid in no-time.

because I just returned from Grad school overseas, have no housing, and am moving to a new part of the country in a month, so I can't really lease a new place for that short a time. Failure? If you call having a Masters in Engineering a failure, I guess so.

You on 4chan dude, everyone of these "experts" is a stupid US kid acting like a dick.

I don't understand the big deal. So if someone wants to live with their family and they contribute to the household. Why does it bother other people. I think this stigma attached is media driven to make consumers extend them selves and spend more money. I have my own house in the middle of bumfuckestan and would love the company of family if they were still alive. But then again I had great parents and no complaints about how I was raised.

I'm not the poster you replied to, but that's a very important distinction.

You take out a mortgage, house isn't yours til it's paid off. Might be 40 years...

Try missing a payment. You'll find out whose house it is.

I lived with my parents until I was 23, moved into my own house, and now losers like OP cut my lawn. 18 isn't some magical cut off point, its a line drawn in the sand by insecure losers. If you have no real accomplishments, just the fact that you moved out when you were 18 doesn't mean shit.

You really think that will work, you need a shitty job whilst you are studying, if your parents pay for shit, you still need a shitty job. No wonder why graduates say that good jobs don't accept them due to lack of experiance. You get your fucking experience through shitty jobs.

shit can't be done.

I make 250 a week and pay 80 for internet, 80 for phone, and 60 for insurance.
with rents for 1 bedroom houses at around $1000, with water and gas at about 100 month each there is no way to live by my self

uni is 5 mins walk away, free food, free bed, no hassle from parents, why the fuck would i not?

Don't have to pay rent, therefore all my income goes to gas, insurance, phone bills, and drugs.

Guys don't worry the government is busy trying to find new and creative ways to fuck you and give your money to a few rich people. Theses rich people created the housing bubble. They want you to save nothing, spend everything and be debt slave, because it's good for the economy. The same rich people will then pay other rich people to write article's telling you to hate the middle-class, the poor or anyone who try to point out you are being assraped.

Honestly OP, I have no desire at all to move out. The ancient viking and aboriginal tribes invested much of their life amongst their pack. They saw no reason to move out of their tribe. They stayed amongst eachother. The concept of family was much stronger then, than it is today. Tell me why I should adhere to a newage tradition and essentially end my life slaving away for money every single day not to live but just to survive, when I can slave away for money that I don't need to spend? I have no long term goals. I have no desire to be anything important or achieve greatness like teachers and peers expect me to. I'm perfectly happy just being alive and living each day as myself without following the trend.

Best answer, tottaly agree
I would live alone tough i love being alone somethimes, but there is alot of freedom and i can be lazy all i want, we work together to get somewhere. When you have a girlfriend etc shit probably changes, but the thing is i don't really want a girlfriend, could change is i loved someone but has not happend ..

I would never put myself into a financial misery
Just to act like look "i'm growing up now"

No you didn't your just trying to show off
That person that lives at home could go out and do what he wants, can buy the car he wants

Doesn't have to do his laundry "yet"
