    Oh I completely agree with you. But the comments against it are ridiculous.

    For decades, young people lived with roommates yet this is completely ignored. I grew up with roommates. My parents did too. So did their parents. But reading these comments makes it sound like the expectation is to turn 18 and be handed the keys to a 1 BR in a nice area.

    Just ridiculous. And every single topic in this site is the same.

      I don’t know about all that I think most of the angst or anger comes from the fact that they’d have to work like a hundred and something hours a week just to afford a one bedroom.

        Right and that is understandable. My point is that if you are working min wage, you can’t afford a 1BR and should live with roommates.
