More ignorant American babbling from a child with so much to learn. If you have a strong Southern or Eastern European cultural background, or if you are from a farm family it is normal to live with your parents until marriage.
I know several people who were able to save McMansion-style money ... as in bought the McMansion for cash by doing so.
My cousin, her husband and her kids have been living with the inlaws since they got married in 1988. They bought a bunch of rental property and have cash flow coming out of their ears every month. But what do they know? They should have just listened to the sexual anarchists and divorced by now I guess.
Not to pick on you too much, you just happen to be convenient at the moment. There are just a bunch of these ignorant rules of thumb permeating society and most people don't know what the hell they are talking about. If you were smart, you would be looking for the guy living at home who is saving/investing all his money instead of looking for another member of the proletariat who follows everybody else like a lemming and is going to be stuck with lease payments the rest of his life.
Again, this isn't Europe. And there is a big difference between someone who lives with their parents while being employed and someone who sits at home on CD all day with no job, no education, and no prospects for either one. If you are so smart why don't you stop arguing with everyone and give the OP some advice for bettering herself?

Lecturing us about the virtues of economic life in Italy, Greece, or Spain, otherwise known The Basketcase of Europe, isn't actually going to win you any points here. If all those Mediterranean families were so adroit at saving money, how come all those Mediterranean countries are teetering on the brink of insolvency?

To be fair, he might not have been a troll, but a guy who took a time machine from 1820. That's the last time that I imagine the word "bastardy" to have been in common usage, anyway.
