I currently live at home with my mother I know crazy right.  I really feel that paying rent is just throwing away money, you have no benefit for it.  So what I do is I save what I can and try not spend lavishly.  Recently my girlfriend wants me to move out and in with her, which I am really considering.  It will be much more difficult in this economy to find a place and also to get financed.  I am confident that I will be able to move out by march of next year.  I have been looking around and I got to say the fun is in the hunt.  I have some friends that are looking for roommates which gives us some options in looking for a place.  Ultimately I would like to get my own place soon.  I think that I can make that happen within the next few years.  I’m thinking that with gas prices being as high as they are moving into town might just save me some time as well as money.  Oh well we will see!
