Im 35 years old and live with my 81 year old grandmother

You'd be shocked how many 40 year olds are living with their parents. I have a few in my family and I don't one bit feel like they're losers. When rent is 1800$+ and jobs pay 12$ an hour and want degrees higher than Bachelor's, you can kiss owning a house goodbye. Most of the younger folks I know had to move all the way out in the country, we're talking deep boonies to get houses at a reasonable price compared to old Metairie. 1 house next door to me is a rinky dink, 2 bedroom, 1 bathroom house and sold for 420,000$ the guy who bought it is gonna eventually flip it down the road but thats just absurd prices, especially in wage deficient Louisiana where we're at the bottom of almost every financial category.
