So I just want to ask this subreddit and see what you'd do in my situation.
I'm a 25 year old male and I currently live at home with my parents. I'm about to start a job in NYC and I think I have two options going forward. I am currently paying $900 a month towards student loans and car payments. I am able to meal-prep, never buy clothes nor really go out.
1)I could move closer to the city and live with a mutual friend in a 2 bed 2 bath, saving around $500 a month with a 2 hour roundtrip commute. I'd be in Jersey City and closer to my friends who I'd hangout with more often. 2)Or I could stay with my parents, saving $1500 a month with a 4 hour roundtrip commute. I'd be in a small town with not a lot going on, but in general I like to stay at home so that's not too big of a deal.
At this point I'm mainly weighing commute time vs. money saved and would love to know what you'd do in the situation and why.
