    What does LS1.com think I should do???

    So I'm debating on what I should do. At the moment I am working but not in a career job. I have a great idea I think for a business but would need money to start it. I have making it so far but I don't want to be stuck where I am at for the rest of my life. I am thinking of moving back with the parents to save some money up to.....

    A: Get out of debt (which isn't much)
    B: Get some savings going
    C: Mod the shit out of my car
    D: Start getting money together for my business

    I would save approx $500+ a month which is a decent amount of money. I already asked the parents and they said its fine and don't care. I would feel like a loser for being 27 and living with them. What does LS1.com think.

    Man: The Mods you are fighting,
    they are the biggest Men I have ever seen. I
    wouldn't want to fight them!

    Me: That is why no one will remember your name!

    I see nothing wrong with it, you have a good reason. But if you do, help pay some bills... That's pretty much what I am doing now, I can afford to move out now. I just chose to buy and drive a nice car instead.

    As long as it's temporary and you actually put that money away, get closer to your goals while contributing around the house... that's what parents are for I say it's fine under those circumstances.

    Oh and if you put it in the car, ummm... Insure it good, it sucks to see your money go to waist. I am literally upside down in my vehicle.

    I agree on all points except C.


    When you're trying to get out of debt, save money, and start a career, pouring money into a depreciating asset like a vehicle is the one of the worst things you can do.

    My business wouldn't need me going to school. I should have $19,000 for MGIB but not sure if I want to go that route

    What if your business doesn't make it?

    I didnt go to school, started working at a fortune 100 company straight out of high school. Couldn't get promoted and ultimately wound up getting laid off. Now I can't find a job making $11 an hour because I don't have a degree

    I'm not saying it won't. Just saying I'd be alot better off if I had thought about the future instead of making money right here right now

    My life is a
    Ben Stiller movie.

    good luck. it's a terrible feeling knowing you have to move back home at your age; but that's what family is for. My brother did it, infact he did it twice, once when he started his buisness, the second, 4 years later while he was waiting for his $250k house to be built...hope you have the same luck!

    Since becoming filthy god damn rich, my brother has treated his family really well at Christmas n' stuff. Not that my parents would ever expect repayment for housing him, but i'm sure the appreciate getting it back =)

    Big bad world out there and your generation running home "to save money" is just fucking bullshit.
