  • This is the way. Living together and saving fat stacks is how you get ahead in life. I lived with my parents through college so I had less student loans to pay off. My wife lived with relatives for 3 out of the 5 years we dated, 1 of those being a year we lived with her parents. All rent free. And that’s how we were able to save up for a house while padding out retirement savings.

    My dad, mom, uncle, aunt, and grandmother all lived under one roof as working class immigrants and they were able to minimize housing costs and maximize the earnings of 5 working adults. That’s how they were actually able to jump into middle class (alongside learning English, getting citizenship, and getting government jobs)
