Half of US is struggling to do this as is. It is not rocket science but the current economic condition makes the ability to self sustain a coin flip. This coin flip is heavily influenced by amount of parental support, which is precisely the conditions OP is facing.
You are also overlooking the emotional damage that abandonment causes.

Good job boomer!
This is quite possibly one of the most privileged and braindead responses I've ever seen.
Dude thank you for the comedy. Your comment made me laugh. I know there's not actually any way you're serious because that would make you a fucking idiot and an asshole. I'll give ya the benefit of the doubt and assume you're trolling. Good stuff man.
With boomers you just never know...
They literally still using 30yo tropes and think that it is a flex lol
Bootlicking is natural to these alpha males
I'm not convinced that was an actual boomer. I doubt many people in their 70s are on Lemmy. No....what we had there is just your typcal fucking idiot. Might still be alpha male trash, but I doubt he's actually a boomer.
I guess some genX has been shilling Boer talking points now that they got to "upper" management and their 401k got fatter LOL
Also youngest boomers are early 60s
Yea I used the older range of boomers ha. You're right. I just don't think many boomers are on here. I'd be interested in seeing an age breakout of Lemmy. my guess is it's mostly zoomers and millenials, just like Reddit
Its to anon to really tell but my feed/experience the core commenters are genx/geny 30-40s
Zoomers proudly lurking I bet tho
Do you call millenials gen Y? I've never heard that one before.
Correct. I have seen it used interchangeably however Wikipedia says millenail also know as gen y, so I got millennial is the more common term.
Interesting. TIL. Thx.
I moved out at 18 and haven’t relied on my family for anything since. It’s not that I hate them; in fact I’m very close to my family but it’s just expected that that’s what you do.
Granted, that was in the Midwest where I could afford a brand new apartment on minimum wage. I’m not sure how I would’ve done this in California (where I live now).
