Live alone with no money or move in with family?

Question

Right now living in my own apartment with no roommate, cant find one, i have only $50 a month to cover food and gas and entertainment etc... if i move in with my mom again (where will have to sleep on the couch because there isnt a spare room) I will save 650.00 a month.. should i move in with her? or suck it up and stay in my apartment with practically no money?

Answer 1

you have tow options

1) get a second - this will allow you to have extra income, because everything (in price) is going up.

2) Move back in - you'll save 650.00 per month and saving it could be used towards a new car (higher mpgs) books, entertainment etc.

I would personal move back in and save, or find a roomate asap

Answer 2

Try out few days with your mom.

there is no harm in going back to parents.

Answer 3

I think this is a dilemma faced by many young people - and even some who are not so young!  I think you should move in with your

mom, but I think for both your sakes there should be some firm ground rules set so can live in harmony.  I think you should pay your mom some rent - even $200 or so a month would show some appreciation. And please help her to keep house clean and with routine maintenance.  Show your appreciation in tangible ways. Discuss beforehand rules - can you invite friends over? Who will cook? Etc...etc.   Best of luck to you!

Answer 4

It depends. Do you get along okay with your mom? If you do, then, yeah, go home. She probably misses you and would love nothing better than to have you home, where you can get yourself better prepared (save up, get a better job, buy some stuff you need..) to live on your own. No mom likes hearing that her son/daughter is having a really, really hard time making ends meet.

If not, then maybe try to find a second part time job. It's better to be broke than live with somebody who makes you miserable.

Answer 5

move out

Answer 6

move with your family ....

Answer 7

No one can live on $50 a month for groceries.  I suggest moving in with mom until you get back on your feet.  Offer her a small amount to help with expenses, and save your money.  If someone comes along that's willing to share an apartment, you can look for a place together.  Good luck.
