    Don't feel ashamed ladies. I just got my first place this year and I'll be 27! I've been in my career for 2 years but the cost of living has skyrocketed so I'm JUST now feeling ready to move out.

    Girl am watching from Kenya 21yrs and am bursting my mind trying to figure out if I'll ever make it and seeing you get into your 1st apartment at 29 just makes me feel goood like I know I still have time. This is inspiring thanks.

    • @JacquelineJohnette
      @JacquelineJohnette  Год назад +80

      Oh girl! You have so much time! At 21, I was literally just living life day by day. You’re honestly doing great. Use this time to put money away, enjoy not having a bunch of responsibilities and know that your time will come 💖

    • @Sheslexmoniquee
      @Sheslexmoniquee Год назад +12

      This is how I’m coming now. I will be on apartment 2. I had my first one at 21. & let it go at 24. I just turned 25 & saving to move in a few months

    • @cindyfern
      @cindyfern Год назад +20

      I agree. You have so much time. I used to feel that way and now I'm 30 living in my own place. My advice is to use this time in your early 20s to travel, work on yourself, have fun, develop new skills and meet new people 😀 your dream apartment/home will come. Don't be in a rush to be an adult. I don't want any young adult getting into a financial burden or responsibilities they are not ready to handle.

    This came right on time, im 26 and I’ve been BEATING myself up for not having my own place right now, but I’ve been blessed to focus on school to reach new heights. But watching my peers at my age and younger have their own place, cars and etc were super discouraging. But watching this video, just really made me feel better. Thank you so much.

    • @JacquelineJohnette

    • @Helga947
      @Helga947 Год назад +16

      Go for it. There are literally no cons. Make sure you stay with the fam to save up like three full moths of salary as an emergency fund, and any deposit and costs that you might need at moving in then move. Look for an appartment you can afford that does not cost more than 40% of your monthly salary, read through the contract and do it. It is scary for 1 minute and then it is the best thing ever.

    Love the space! I’m especially a sucker for clean white walls. Unsolicited tip: I too live in a studio apartment (kinda the same layout) so I can say from experience a bed in this type of setting gets old fast. Especially if you live there for a while and start accumulating things. I was super against any type of modular furniture when I first moved into my own space but I’m seriously considering a convertible (they make them built for daily sleep now and if you find one in the style of your apartment/other furniture it can work). You’ll be amazed at how bigger the place looks when you have more floor “real estate” freed up. Good luck and congrats 🙏🏾

  • @stevensteven5144
