"You most likely have a place to live (parents)"

Lots of young people are turned out of home when they reach adult age. I wouldn't assume that any particular nineteen-year-old has anywhere else to live but a place where he is paying rent.

I'm 30 and I've never met or heard of one in the last fifteen years or so. I'm sure such young people exist, but I doubt there are "lots" of them anymore.

What circles do you hang out in?

I'm considerably older, and perhaps I've lived in more different places too.


wow, my experience is just the opposite. I'm 40, but I'm guessing its not a generation thing as I have plenty of friends from age 20 through 60. Where do you live and what social circles do you run in? I am legitimately curious here. You may have discovered a pocket of utopia.
