Okay. Well, you have to take into account how much things will cost where you will live. How much rent will be. Will you rent or buy? 1 bedroom apartment or 2? Townhouse, condo? Then you've got utilities. Heat/hot water/electricity. Will you want air conditioning?
Cable/internet. Furniture. Kitchen supplies. Groceries.
Do you have credit? If not, start building it now. If youre parents have credit cards (and good credit) get yourselves onto their accounts. Just have them put you as authorized users.
Do research. Research the hell out of it. Take your time, save up as much as you can because it is SO expensive living on your own, let alone with somebody else.
