I moved back home at 33. I don’t care what anyone thinks! We have to all walk our own path. I’d take being at home with my family over struggling. I can save money and finish working on my master’s without worrying about the stress of housing (and food).. my mom cooks! Lol
Exactly. I'm mid 30's and had to move back because my relationship of 13 years ended. Now I'm kind of restarting. As long as you're working and helping out there's no shame in this! America seems to be the only country where it's shamed.
I lived in California and I was around so many other cultures. I realized family living together is special. Don’t allow anyone to make you feel live with your parents is a bad thing. Honestly, many people wish they had parents to live with.
Right..,the idea of being super independent and acting as if you don't need anyone is mostly an American thing. Living at home is not the worst idea in the world. As long as you are contributing and showing each other respect, then it's fine.
Many peoples from various (non-American/individualistic) cultures live with family. Often times, that reality only changes when one gets married. There’s nothing to prove to anyone. And you’re being pretty gracious by explaining your choice. The truth is: if you’ve got the support & inclination, you could/should stay with your parents for as long as you like. Viewers should view & change the channel as their viewing needs dictate 🤦🏽♀️ Enjoy your parents, YOUR HOME with them, and this new season of your life 💝🥂
I’m 31 and also just moved back to my parents house with my 2 kids after a rough divorce. Life happens and I’m so thankful I was able to move back in with my main support system.
I had to move back in with my parents at 28. With a 2 year old. 13 years later, I own the house next door to them. Having a place where you can always land is a privilege and nothing to be ashamed of. I hope to be able to do the same thing for my Kiddo.
I haven't watched yet but I j moved back at 30. It's mostly been a good thing. It's a privilege to always have a safe place to land in my book. Hope you're doing well.😊
At my old age of 53, I wished my folks were still alive because I'd move back home so fast! Rent is too darn high! LOL It's awesome that you have parents who support you and your endeavors in this way. Keep thriving!
You are blessed that you didn't have to worry about a living space upon your return. I know that your parents are over the moon to have you back.Take as much time as you need. 💞
Paige, I recently went through the same transition myself, moving back home, having to spent time with my aging parents and all. It's wholesome and it shows on me as well as you physically, it was the right thing to do. You're glowing!! :)
@@PaigeMariahMilk this cow for all it’s worth!! I’m 36 and if I could move back in today I would! It’s so ghetto out here I’m like, “Hey Daddy, you sure you’on need me to be back in there?”😂
I love a good mother who allows they child regardless of the age to lean on them in any way without any intentions or ill thoughts behind it. Pulling your weight at as a parent should never stop
Instantly subscribed. I recently moved back home to Cali at 34 after 12 years in nyc. All your sentiments I understand precisely!!!! Thank you for sharing.
This was my prayer for you Miss Paige. When I saw your parents join you for “the car purchase” I said this beautiful and sweet young lady has wonderful parents. Contribute to the 401K (low risk investments for now). I’ll continue to pray that you can purchase a nice condo or house. 🙏🏽 I’m so happy for you and your parents. ❤ Thanksgiving is about to to be wonderful.
@@PaigeMariah I was just thinking this morning about how beautifully your life is going. You’ve done a great job with your life. You’ve traveled extensively. You’ve experienced living abroad. Now you can focus on saving money to secure your future. You are also able to enjoy the love of family and live peacefully in their home. I admire you and am truly inspired by you. I’m going to retire outside of the USA. You are one of the young women who have opened my eyes to seeing that there are truly endless possibilities in life. My prayers will continue for you. You deserve the best that life has to offer ❤
For all of the ones who get to move back home be very greatful. Not everyone has that option. I made sure to put myself in a position that if my kids (two sons) ever need to move back home they can.
I moved in with my aunt (next door to my parents) for a year to save money before I purchased my home. Family who supports you is such a blessing. And now I tell my kids that they always have a home with us. My cousin, her husband and daughter moved in with her mom for a year to save for their home as well. Now they’re able to do the same for their own family. Our daughter has moved in with my mom for the same reasons. It’s a win win because my mom was alone. My dad has passed away. So they’re together and loving it. My mom is going to miss her a lot when she does move. It’s a beautiful thing. We should normalize this practice. Not everyone has family to depend on. So if you do, enjoy it❤❤❤
I started watching your channel as you were preparing your move to London. I'm going to say this in all sincerity "stay home as long as you can!" You have a great family dynamic, there's no need to rush. I know that you enjoy being back home.
You are playing it smart. Your parents are truly a blessing to allow you to stay with them and save money. You can save to actually purchase the home and furniture and have a cushion. That is truly playing smart, and being patient truly is a virtue.❤😊
Definitely take your time. I got out of the Navy five years ago and moved back in with my parents to establish financial stability, start a new career as a contractor, and to overall regroup from 8 years of active duty service. Plus, my parents are getting older as well my older brother (who is autistic). So there's no rush on my end to find an apartment either, but it's coming. Thank God for supportive family members!! 😁
Gworl live at home and save for as long as you can. It’s clear your parents love you and want the best for you. Buy a place when you’re ready. Invest the rest ❤
Oh my goodness. I just moved back home and my childhood room was converted into an office as well. 😅 It has definitely been an ADJUSTMENT living with my mother but I am trying to appreciate and grow in this season. Save those coins, girl and when it is time to move on, you will. 😊 Tfs
Congrats on securing a FT job🎉 Congrats on "playing it smart"🎉 You are lucky to get along with your parents; some don't have that type of relationship. Enjoy your parents! Thks for sharing!
Best plan ever stay home as long as possible and save, save, save. My daughter is home and has managed to save several months of income. I told my daughter to save two years income before moving out. Emergency money and a savings is a must.
One word i can say about you Paige and it's this. INSPIRING! I sensed when you were living in your last shared accommodation in London that you didn't feel that comfortable i also sensed that you were restricted living there.every single thing you have mentioned in this video you will achieve them no ifs or buts about it! Thank you for the video! Positivity peace and love ❤
A lot of us move back in with parents at some point. It's a safe haven. If you get on with your family then being able to live with them is a blessing. (And rent free, damn that's good). Cherish every moment. But don't get too comfortable!
I’m glad to hear you share your experience. I’m currently doing the same thing at the moment. I’m from STL and originally moved to Dallas for almost 8yrs and decided last May I wanted a change so I up and moved to uptown, Chicago.I overall loved the city but my apartment was an overwhelming bad experience. Not knowing the apartment hunting culture well I wasn’t aware of the option to be asked to move out if they don’t want to complete repairs so I moved suddenly and my aunt blessed me with the opportunity to move in with her to save (rent free) to help build myself more financial freedom so that I can be prepared to find something new wherever I decide to go next and for my future. I didn’t realize how much I appreciated being around family. It’s amazing and although a humbling experience I can see the bigger picture overall.
we have a similar story, I moved out of my parents in Ireland and decided to move back to the uk, 4 years later and im having thoughts of moving back. living in the uk is exceptionally difficult, way too expensive and its not even worth the stress England is so miserable 😭
Yea I moved in at 27 28 save money health insurance then was kicked out for not having a plan then was forced into a hotel then I went to Miami for school this is where I plan to raise my family so yea I will be here
Loooove watching this! Welcome back home! They also had crab legs on sale for $4.99 this week at Jewel's! All Chicagians know how we love to be home! Take your time enjoying your family! ❤
Paige, glad to see the great relationship you have with your parents! So many adult children wish they could have this, but for whatever reason, don't! Treasure each moment with them and enjoy your life! Happy Monday!
Hey Paige, Your parents is so amazing and just such blessing, that right just save money as long as you can keep focus and dwell in God grace. Me and you are kind of following the same direction. After my son graduated from high school and move on. I am a truck driver so I went on the road and I begin understand I could save money by living in my truck and I have been living in truck for 2yrs now and I am able to not only save a great deal of money but able to do the things that I love doing and not worry about none of it. In these times we are living in US I know people are struggling trying to make ends meets due to increase in rent/housing cost and inflation. I know God is moving in the blessings for me and you and others who are focus on him. So stay on God and he will give you the desire of your heart. Be encouraged and unmoved and stay focused on God.
I felt the same way when I left home after graduating from College. I'm out, I'm gone. Never ever did I think I would need to move back home and then at 30, I got sick and it made sense to move home. What was only supposed to be 1 year turned into 3 1/2 years and I'm so grateful that I had a home to come back to. Stay as long as you need. Now that I've moved out again, these rent prices are ridiculous. I much rather be spending money on my mortgage than paying somebody else's.
I moved back in with my parents at 31 back in 2019 as well. It was best for my financial situation at the time. I was able to save up a lot of money because of it. I support your idea to be with family. You get to spend as much time as you can because you never know when will be the last time. So enjoy it and have a great time!
Paige, it’s truly a blessing to be able to be home rent free with little to no stress, just a pure blessing girl. I’m doing the same thing right now with my son, he moved out and was gone for three years but when I started having health issues and had to have surgery, I asked my son if he could move back home to help me and he did. I also told him that it was rent free and he could save his money for the future, it’s been a blessing for me and him, he’s also in his late thirties.👋🏽❤
My daughter lived with me until she was 30. Shes been out on her own paying those real bills 6 months. I plan to purchase a second home next year. She says she's moving back in with me even if she has to sleep on the couch 😂. She realizes life is expensive
LOVE how relatable and real your content is! I feel like many of us on our this journey of saving etc and would love to see more content in that theme if it interests you to make it
so similar to me! i just moved back to MI after living in Chicago for 5 years. never thought in a million years I'd be back in MI... let alone living back with my parents. very grateful i can save.
Im 30 and I moved back with my parents too. I felt like I was just throwing away money with how expensive apartments were and I was also working remote plus doing online school. The only reason I moved out was to be close to the city but I can’t remember the last time I went out because of how busy my schedule got. When I told my parents I wanted to move back it was an instant yes and they were so happy because sometimes they needed help around the house and just navigating the world because they are getting older. I also think it’s a cultural thing because in my culture living with your parents past 18 is normal and not something to be ashamed of. Great video !
Im 39 and live at home, beyond not what i expected. My mom doesn’t respect boundaries, so im looking for something else. Its a journey, we've our own detours. ❤
It’s so funny because I just searched “moving back in with my parents” then your video popped up first! Girl WHY do I live in your area and JUST came from that Walmart an hour ago 😂😂 I’m like that looks familiar!
Awww I love this!! There’s so many of us out here having the same experiences lol. If you’re on TikTok, I’m documenting the journey more consistently over there! @paige_mariah 🫶🏼💕
Thank God for great parents! I have had to practice that delayed gratification to make a move or get to a new stage. I can relate. It’s tough, but it’s worth it!
Somehow I`ve stumbled across this video and I want to say thank you for sharing. I am moving back to my home state MN to live with my mom in a few months and I am 28. I`ve also decided to go back to working in corporate America after being self employed for 4 years so I can save as much as I can. I was hesitant at first but this video is reassuring. Its definitely a blessing and congratulations to you!
Paige I get it. I was much older than you when I moved back home after living in Georgia. Initially I was happy to be back, spending time with my Dad and Mom. Our house was large but there was others in addition to my parents living there so it eventually got old. I needed my space because I have always valued my alone space .I believed from my first job that I must give GOD his and pay myself second. I had savings when I moved back but it took me 3 years because I was not favored to live rent free. That was one of the conditions my parents gave me. I still saved a lot because I for went everything else including a vehicle. I moved and never moved back. Your very creative so there is other content outside of moving. I look forward to whatever that is. Please send my warmest hello to Mama and Daddy D. Thanks for sharing.😊🙏
Girl! Your videos are always on point when I need to hear them. This video brought me so much comfort in knowing I’m in good company. Thank you for sharing and being transparent!
Yes, Paige!! Your plan is the very definition of smart vs wise! You are making WISE decisions and I am so here for it! This is how you do it!! People think because you’re in your 30’s, you should have this or that, but the main things to have are stability, peace, freedom, and God’s hands on everything! Hats off to you and a salute!
I love this. London is so expensive. I did my masters, and now I’m living with my sisters just to get back on my feet. London will knock you out financially of course.😭
I love this! Watching you, i can see you are family orientated & that is a blessing in itself- Unfortunately our parents will not be around forever, enjoy this time with them 🙏🏽
Hey, and glad to see you again. The cool thing is that you can help your parents out also. Aww! Home sweet home Paige! lol Take care and good luck on your career endeavors as well.
Hi Paige! Firstly, I love this vid girl. This is SO relatable. Secondly, I just want to encourage you can you can do this!!! I just went thru almost nearly the same thing under different circumstances and have to move back home with my mother in Chicago to recover during a hard times, after living in California for several years. I did the painful wait of saving for more than a year and now I'm back where I want to be and living alone in another state. It can be done, and the time can go by just like that too! Best wishes to you!
Yeeesss I did that when I had my home built at 27! I used all cash for my furniture and things I wanted! I live with my mom for 5 years after I graduated from college, saved up and had my home built! Stay home and do just that! ❤
Such a blessing to have loving parents that you can go home to. I don’t have that so am forced to be super independent and make wise budgeting decisions because I don’t have a “home base”. Happy for you Paige !❤
Living with your parents is such a norm in Asian culture. Nothing to be ashamed about at all. It’s such a blessing to have family you get on with. I grew up in the uk but Asian and I hate how western culture is so funny about being with family. It’s nearly like it’s uncool to be with family. Sad really.
You have such a big following I though the cheques coming in for RUclips would've had you sorted. That just me assuming though. But it's nothing wrong with living at home. I've lived with my parents my entire life and i'm 34. Your an unmarried female with no kids this is the standard we are much better off in the long run because we have stable parents to guide us.
I am still very much home too!! My parents are great as well. I’m 28- taking the time to save, build another income stream then I’m leaving lol. So you are NOT alone . I’m going to be here for a while too. Saving and building up . I have a room too that’s with my desk, clothes and gym lol. Funny enough I’m eyeing London after I leave too! Ain’t nothing wrong with being home until we’re ready to go ! It’s smart!! God got us !😘
Oh take you're time people just go overboard with comments think to much to fast save you're money spend time with you're parents its people out here living struggling wish they had parents to live with to save money it's expensive out here 😊
I am 33 years old and live in Hawaii. I never left home but this allowed me to be debt free and accumulate a lot of savings. I currently saved a little more than $300k. It worked out because my Mom doesn’t have a mortgage on the properties my family owns but I do return the favor whenever there is an unexpected expenses since my Mom is not working and is on limited income stream. People say my Mom won’t be here forever but it if I keep it up I should be fine to be financially independent with my savings when that day happens.
Hey Paige, I really enjoyed this video listen I do not blame you for staying home and getting your savings together your parents are amazing for allowing you that safe place to get you together because sometimes that’s what’s needed I’m just so happy for you 💕💕
It’s NOTHING wrong with living with your parents as an adult. I have for children and two are still at home. My daughter is the only girl and she can stay as long as she wants. My husband and I enjoy our children’s company. There is nothing to be shameful about! Enjoy your parents girl 💝🥰. I’m enjoying my daughter soooooo much! She’s 33 hilarious and a great cook! Family is everything, Enjoy 🥳🥳🥳🎉🎉🎉
Hi, Paige. 😊 It probably doesn't feel like it at this time, but you are WAY ahead of the 8 ball - by way of re-establising your independence and in life. This is not a setback, but just a rest stop as you re-establish some essentials. Maintain the energy and your focus, and you'll exceed your expectations.
Hey girl, there is no shame in living at home. I am 28 and am finally moving out with a nice cushion. I could move out and not work for an entire year and my savings would cover my rent, thanks to my parents. God has blessed us with great parents. I recommend saving the amount of money you would pay in rent a month and have 1k emergency savings, max out your 401k, and move when they have those really nice apartment deals. Wishing you the best!
My daughter, a fantastic 30-year-old, lives with us( or should I say we live together). She's financially responsible and leads her own life. I'm baffled by the stigma surrounding adult children living at home. There's no glory in the struggle that leads to potential homelessness or food insecurity. It's detrimental to mental health. We need to stop glorifying this struggle. If a person is safe, content, and healthy, and the family is supportive, then others should not judge but respect their living choices. I’m sure your parents sleep well, knowing that you are safe and happy, so ignore all the negative comments to those who have a opinion but have no money to contribute to your cause. I love having my daughter at home after all her being here is all my doing, she didn’t asked to be born lol.. everybody else needs to mind their own business💋
I’m from Chicago the Morgan Park area I can’t move back there it’s too busy and violent it’s nice you can live with both your parents without getting irritated because living in a house with other people is challenging
I moved back home at 33. I don’t care what anyone thinks! We have to all walk our own path. I’d take being at home with my family over struggling. I can save money and finish working on my master’s without worrying about the stress of housing (and food).. my mom cooks! Lol
I don't know why some feel that struggling is a flex. It's really not.
Period!!
Exactly. I'm mid 30's and had to move back because my relationship of 13 years ended. Now I'm kind of restarting. As long as you're working and helping out there's no shame in this! America seems to be the only country where it's shamed.

Hey Paige,
Your parents is so amazing and just such blessing, that right just save money as long as you can keep focus and dwell in God grace. Me and you are kind of following the same direction. After my son graduated from high school and move on. I am a truck driver so I went on the road and I begin understand I could save money by living in my truck and I have been living in truck for 2yrs now and I am able to not only save a great deal of money but able to do the things that I love doing and not worry about none of it. In these times we are living in US I know people are struggling trying to make ends meets due to increase in rent/housing cost and inflation. I know God is moving in the blessings for me and you and others who are focus on him. So stay on God and he will give you the desire of your heart. Be encouraged and unmoved and stay focused on God.
Whew!! Thank you so much for sharing & for the prayers. I’m sending you some right back!! God’s got you! ❤️
I felt the same way when I left home after graduating from College. I'm out, I'm gone. Never ever did I think I would need to move back home and then at 30, I got sick and it made sense to move home. What was only supposed to be 1 year turned into 3 1/2 years and I'm so grateful that I had a home to come back to. Stay as long as you need. Now that I've moved out again, these rent prices are ridiculous. I much rather be spending money on my mortgage than paying somebody else's.
I moved back in with my parents at 31 back in 2019 as well. It was best for my financial situation at the time. I was able to save up a lot of money because of it. I support your idea to be with family. You get to spend as much time as you can because you never know when will be the last time. So enjoy it and have a great time!
Love this so much!! 🙌🏼
Paige, it’s truly a blessing to be able to be home rent free with little to no stress, just a pure blessing girl. I’m doing the same thing right now with my son, he moved out and was gone for three years but when I started having health issues and had to have surgery, I asked my son if he could move back home to help me and he did. I also told him that it was rent free and he could save his money for the future, it’s been a blessing for me and him, he’s also in his late thirties.👋🏽❤
I just turned 30, have my first apartment now in NYC, your video really make me want to move back, it can save so much money.
My daughter lived with me until she was 30. Shes been out on her own paying those real bills 6 months. I plan to purchase a second home next year. She says she's moving back in with me even if she has to sleep on the couch 😂. She realizes life is expensive
🤣🤣🤣
I can't believe that people asked the question concerning your living arrangement???? It's great to have family support!!!!
Your mommy looks sooo happy to have you there 🥰 it's so cute!
Thank youuu 😊
LOVE how relatable and real your content is! I feel like many of us on our this journey of saving etc and would love to see more content in that theme if it interests you to make it
Omg yes! It’s definitely something I plan on sharing more of 😊
so similar to me! i just moved back to MI after living in Chicago for 5 years. never thought in a million years I'd be back in MI... let alone living back with my parents. very grateful i can save.
Im 30 and I moved back with my parents too. I felt like I was just throwing away money with how expensive apartments were and I was also working remote plus doing online school. The only reason I moved out was to be close to the city but I can’t remember the last time I went out because of how busy my schedule got. When I told my parents I wanted to move back it was an instant yes and they were so happy because sometimes they needed help around the house and just navigating the world because they are getting older. I also think it’s a cultural thing because in my culture living with your parents past 18 is normal and not something to be ashamed of. Great video !
I love this so much!! Good for you for doing what’s best for you at the present time!! 👏🏼
You're blessed to have the parents you have and relationship you have with them.
thank you. I feel very blessed!
Im 39 and live at home, beyond not what i expected. My mom doesn’t respect boundaries, so im looking for something else. Its a journey, we've our own detours. ❤
omg youre in chicago i am south and im 31 too. just moved in with my hubbys family. would love to meet one day.
It’s so funny because I just searched “moving back in with my parents” then your video popped up first! Girl WHY do I live in your area and JUST came from that Walmart an hour ago 😂😂 I’m like that looks familiar!
Awww I love this!! There’s so many of us out here having the same experiences lol. If you’re on TikTok, I’m documenting the journey more consistently over there! @paige_mariah 🫶🏼💕
@@PaigeMariah great! Followed!!
Proud of you and super encouraged!! Happy for you!
Thank you soo much 🫶🏼
Paige, You and your family are so adorable! Enjoy your time together. Thank You for sharing!❤️
Thank you so much! ☺️
Thank God for great parents! I have had to practice that delayed gratification to make a move or get to a new stage. I can relate. It’s tough, but it’s worth it!
So worth it!! Thanks girl ☺️💕
I’m not mad at that..my home will forever be available to my youngins if need be.
Somehow I`ve stumbled across this video and I want to say thank you for sharing. I am moving back to my home state MN to live with my mom in a few months and I am 28. I`ve also decided to go back to working in corporate America after being self employed for 4 years so I can save as much as I can. I was hesitant at first but this video is reassuring. Its definitely a blessing and congratulations to you!
I’m so happy this video could reach you! You are definitely not alone. We’ve got this 😊
Paige I get it. I was much older than you when I moved back home after living in Georgia. Initially I was happy to be back, spending time with my Dad and Mom. Our house was large but there was others in addition to my parents living there so it eventually got old. I needed my space because I have always valued my alone space .I believed from my first job that I must give GOD his and pay myself second. I had savings when I moved back but it took me 3 years because I was not favored to live rent free. That was one of the conditions my parents gave me. I still saved a lot because I for went everything else including a vehicle. I moved and never moved back. Your very creative so there is other content outside of moving. I look forward to whatever that is. Please send my warmest hello to Mama and Daddy D. Thanks for sharing.😊🙏
Thank you soo much for this comment Kecia!!
Girl! Your videos are always on point when I need to hear them. This video brought me so much comfort in knowing I’m in good company. Thank you for sharing and being transparent!
You are so welcome 🥹🫶🏼
Yes, Paige!! Your plan is the very definition of smart vs wise! You are making WISE decisions and I am so here for it! This is how you do it!! People think because you’re in your 30’s, you should have this or that, but the main things to have are stability, peace, freedom, and God’s hands on everything! Hats off to you and a salute!
So true!! Thank you so much 🫶🏼
Paige take your time and enjoy your parents you are totally right 💯💯💯💯❤️❤️❤️❤️😍😍😍😍👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿👍🏿👍🏿👍🏿👍🏿👍🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿
Thank you!! 🫶🏼🫶🏼
I love this. London is so expensive. I did my masters, and now I’m living with my sisters just to get back on my feet. London will knock you out financially of course.😭
I love this! Watching you, i can see you are family orientated & that is a blessing in itself- Unfortunately our parents will not be around forever, enjoy this time with them 🙏🏽
Hey, and glad to see you again. The cool thing is that you can help your parents out also. Aww! Home sweet home Paige! lol Take care and good luck on your career endeavors as well.
Exactly!! So happy to help them. Thank you so much!!
You are in the right place. So happy for you and your family. 😀❤️🙋🏽♂️
Don't feel bad.Wish I had my beloved parents to live with them and take care of them at 31 or 50.
I loved my parents so much.
I recently moved back home to PA after living in MS for a few years.
So many people are moving home!
Hi Paige! Firstly, I love this vid girl. This is SO relatable. Secondly, I just want to encourage you can you can do this!!! I just went thru almost nearly the same thing under different circumstances and have to move back home with my mother in Chicago to recover during a hard times, after living in California for several years. I did the painful wait of saving for more than a year and now I'm back where I want to be and living alone in another state. It can be done, and the time can go by just like that too! Best wishes to you!
🙄🙄
This comment was so encouraging!! I’m so happy to hear it all worked out for you!! ☺️🙌🏼
Hope you continue to share your journey and maybe even share how you save. Love the channel I subscribed
I definitely will!! Thanks so much for subscribing 😊
Take your time and get back in the groove of returning to the US, when you are ready and figure things out then you can move on from your parents,
Yes, that’s the plan!!
Wow. Loved hearing this. Thank you for kindly sharing!
☺️🫶🏼
AWW Congrats on your new job and thank you for your transparency! Wishing you all the best!
Thank you so much!!
Learn to purchase with cash. Try to live credit free. Keep your cost and credit low.
That's the plan!
Yeeesss I did that when I had my home built at 27! I used all cash for my furniture and things I wanted! I live with my mom for 5 years after I graduated from college, saved up and had my home built! Stay home and do just that! ❤
Such a blessing to have loving parents that you can go home to. I don’t have that so am forced to be super independent and make wise budgeting decisions because I don’t have a “home base”. Happy for you Paige !❤
Totally understand & I def realize how much of a privilege this is. Thanks so much!!
There's nothing wrong with living with your parents. I did it at around the same age.
Living with your parents is such a norm in Asian culture. Nothing to be ashamed about at all. It’s such a blessing to have family you get on with. I grew up in the uk but Asian and I hate how western culture is so funny about being with family. It’s nearly like it’s uncool to be with family. Sad really.
You have such a big following I though the cheques coming in for RUclips would've had you sorted. That just me assuming though. But it's nothing wrong with living at home. I've lived with my parents my entire life and i'm 34. Your an unmarried female with no kids this is the standard we are much better off in the long run because we have stable parents to guide us.
I am still very much home too!! My parents are great as well. I’m 28- taking the time to save, build another income stream then I’m leaving lol. So you are NOT alone . I’m going to be here for a while too. Saving and building up . I have a room too that’s with my desk, clothes and gym lol. Funny enough I’m eyeing London after I leave too! Ain’t nothing wrong with being home until we’re ready to go ! It’s smart!! God got us !😘
I love this so much!! 🙌🏼🙌🏼
Oh take you're time people just go overboard with comments think to much to fast save you're money spend time with you're parents its people out here living struggling wish they had parents to live with to save money it's expensive out here 😊
So true!!
you need to stay right there and save to buy a little place for yourself, a condo or a small house, invest in you not someone else.
Girl I don't know what's up with RUclips, but they don't put up your videos! I have to hunt and peck for your videos. Pain in the butt!
awww I also haven't uploaded much the last couple months but I plan to make my comeback soon!
I love doing errands with my momma. Im 31 too.
🙌🏼🙌🏼
Chicago is great welcome... Your mindset is different plus you got family support
I’m moving back home at 32 after being in China for 4 years, it is what it is
Just transitioning into the next chapter!
I am 33 years old and live in Hawaii. I never left home but this allowed me to be debt free and accumulate a lot of savings. I currently saved a little more than $300k. It worked out because my Mom doesn’t have a mortgage on the properties my family owns but I do return the favor whenever there is an unexpected expenses since my Mom is not working and is on limited income stream. People say my Mom won’t be here forever but it if I keep it up I should be fine to be financially independent with my savings when that day happens.
This is AMAZING!!!
Hey Paige, I really enjoyed this video listen I do not blame you for staying home and getting your savings together your parents are amazing for allowing you that safe place to get you together because sometimes that’s what’s needed I’m just so happy for you 💕💕
Thank you so much!! 🫶🏼💕
It’s NOTHING wrong with living with your parents as an adult. I have for children and two are still at home. My daughter is the only girl and she can stay as long as she wants. My husband and I enjoy our children’s company. There is nothing to be shameful about! Enjoy your parents girl 💝🥰. I’m enjoying my daughter soooooo much! She’s 33 hilarious and a great cook! Family is everything, Enjoy 🥳🥳🥳🎉🎉🎉
Hi, Paige. 😊 It probably doesn't feel like it at this time, but you are WAY ahead of the 8 ball - by way of re-establising your independence and in life. This is not a setback, but just a rest stop as you re-establish some essentials. Maintain the energy and your focus, and you'll exceed your expectations.
Hey girl, there is no shame in living at home. I am 28 and am finally moving out with a nice cushion. I could move out and not work for an entire year and my savings would cover my rent, thanks to my parents. God has blessed us with great parents. I recommend saving the amount of money you would pay in rent a month and have 1k emergency savings, max out your 401k, and move when they have those really nice apartment deals. Wishing you the best!
I love this comment so much!! Thank you for sharing ☺️🫶🏼
Im happy for you. Idk why its so shameful to be at home with fam
It shouldn’t be at all!! Thank you!
My daughter, a fantastic 30-year-old, lives with us( or should I say we live together). She's financially responsible and leads her own life. I'm baffled by the stigma surrounding adult children living at home. There's no glory in the struggle that leads to potential homelessness or food insecurity. It's detrimental to mental health. We need to stop glorifying this struggle. If a person is safe, content, and healthy, and the family is supportive, then others should not judge but respect their living choices. I’m sure your parents sleep well, knowing that you are safe and happy, so ignore all the negative comments to those who have a opinion but have no money to contribute to your cause. I love having my daughter at home after all her being here is all my doing, she didn’t asked to be born lol.. everybody else needs to mind their own business💋
I’m from Chicago the Morgan Park area I can’t move back there it’s too busy and violent it’s nice you can live with both your parents without getting irritated because living in a house with other people is challenging
Thank you!
You are still young . You can go home just save up while you are there .
Lots of good luck miss paige 😊
Thank you!! 😊
@PaigeMariah your welcome, Miss😊 paige
