If you're older than 18 and aren't going to school you shouldn't live with your parents.

I work and save money while living with my parents. I'm building my career. So when I move out I can put down 25% on a house and don't have to live from pay cheque to pay cheque while eating KD every night

I also like driving nice cars and I like being able to pay cash for them

I'll take my dodge, MY house and eat KD. If it means not living under someone elses roof

I'm sure your parents love that you can afford a nice car while living under their roof.

I left home the day after high school. My life had been awesome and independent. Have a nice house drive a new BMW. Wouldn't change a thing.

I always thought nice cars and other things come after building a career not before. I've also seen pics of your car, more than enough "cash" there for down-payment which only needs to be 5% not 25%, which btw actually seems like an odd number seeing how 20% is all that required to avoid mortgage Canada, obviously little thought been put into this. Seems more like mooching to me but that's just an observation from someone that managed to build a good career on his own by saving and going to school while paying something called rent. I got a brother in law in the same spot as you, could rent but considers it a waste of money so he's "saving" while driving a brand new infinity. He's also under the illusion his folks want him to stay, they don't. Any parents that actually would are bad parents IMO and need to learn to let go.

If you're so bored get a job while you wait for this "career" to blossom, pick up a news paper and find a place you can actually call your own. Maybe then you'd appreciate the tank more and not find it so boring.

wow.....sudden hostility because the guy lives at home. Although it wasn't my route in life I'm not so quick to judge and give advice when not asked.

This is a fish forum ppl and it was a fish tank question.....why get so personal?

[sphelps]

Cause it's annoying seeing someones priorities so out of whack, and to be fair my advice should help his tank boredom problem.

lol i have a good job. and a good business.

my parents are old school european. they do like having me here. They dont speak or write very well in english and im a great asset to them in the house.

I graduated university less than 2 years ago. all which i paid for myself.

the only thing i dont pay for is rent. as per my parents advice; its better to save it and put it towards something that i'll actually own
