The thing is, I could also be living in my parents house with absolutely crap loads of my own space. I also have a very good relationship with my parents, so this isn't the reason not to. I just couldn't personally do it no matter how cushty and cheap, but fine if people can bring themselves to be the guy still living with mummy at the age of 25. I do however appreciate that financially, some people don't have a choice.

But hey, she does your washing and brings you fish fingers while you're watching the football on posh sofas with your mates, that you're dead if you spill anything on and on which you have to severely watch your Ps and Qs!

mdixson, if you want a 2 year old Scirocco you'll be at the top end of your budget and you'll be buying one with the old Golf MkV interior as posted by iaind. It had a refresh for the 2010 model, which brought the interior up to that of the Golf MkVI. I wouldn't spend £20k on a Scirocco with a Golf MkV interior.

This is the problem with 'attempting' to have a reasoned discussion with you.

You show glimmers of being able to conduct a reasoned debate with adults but then after a while you get bored and start making things up. I don't think a single person in this thread has said 'Mummy' (Whilst I appreciate this is the word you use for your mother, you need to understand most of us have grown out of that term) does them washing, etc etc. Yet you pretend they have, because it makes your points more amusing.

If you continue to do this, then whats the point?

Whilst I don't tend to use the living room often as I have my own, are you telling me that if you spilt beer and fish fingers all over the carpet your wife wouldn't be really, really annoyed with you? :p

Virtually every single disadvantage you've cited so far, despite not even being the case for many people, applies equally to you and is not something that is a result of neccesarily living at home, its just something that results from... living with OTHER PEOPLE, be they mates (Unless they are filthy slobs), housemates, parents or a wife or girlfriend.

You cannot bring home random slappers to your house. You cannot pour beer on your carpet. You cannot listen to music at 4am as the wife and neighbours will be upset (Though I can, so ha!). You cannot stand around in your living room during the day naked watching porn and playing BF:BC2 because a passer by in your street will call the police. Your wife probably does all your washing.

So why persist with this myth that your life is one big no-care-in-the-world naked porn watching slapper ****ing party you'd not be able to have with your parents? You cant have it now, either!

The stuff you described happens only in a short period in your life - whilst at Uni and perhaps a few years immediatly after, but then never again.

He's living the life we all aspire to Fox, leave him to it.
 
It doesn't really matter who does the washing or how loud you can get away with having the music, The best thing about moving out is being able to live with who you want, I get on great with my parents but unsurprisingly I get on better with my friends who I have chosen/are the same age or even a GF.

I don't want to go out every night but I want to have decent company in the evenings. Living with a mate or 2 is great.

Having said this I cannot save up a deposit. But as my parents were starting to rip me off it isn't much more expensive, but then I would feel a sponge for living there rent free but I would still probably do it lol. Although at 25 it does have a slight stigma rightly or wrongly.

Not true, living room at the rear of the house you see :p Although the matter of going to work, and not having BF:BC2 means I can't do that anyway.

No probably about it, she does :) And the ironing too (she likes it apparently, who am I to argue...)

This is a silly argument though, different strokes for different folks. I'm sure if I had been single I'd have stayed living with my folks longer rather than moving out at 21 after uni. It wouldn't have been better or worse, just different.

I had no issues when living at home, like Fox could do what I wanted when I wanted, they had nice houses (although moved a lot which was a tad annoying).

Enjoy your life however you want to (as long as it's legal :p), you only get one...

That is exactly my point :)

Edit: For some reason I thought you were Robbie G :confused: I should have known better given how much logic and reason you posted :p

I know that's what you mean, some people seem to have a real chip on their shoulder though as to what they think you should or shouldn't do.

Do what makes you happy and don't care what others think.

Unless it's your wife, in which case do what makes her happy so your life is easier :)

Happy wife, happy life.
