I moved out at 19, I was barely getting by, my job didn't pay enough and my bills were ridiculous, but I had my own place and I loved it.
Fast forward a few years and after being stiffed on rent and bills, having a good chunk of my belongings stolen and losing my job, I had very little choice but to move back in with the folks and try to get back on my feet.
It took almost 4 months of pavement pounding to find a job that paid 50 cents more than minimum wage, I was glad to get it since there was nothing in my chosen field (Human Resources). I've since found a better job, after finally deciding to ignore everyone who said that there was no future in being a chef. That being said, the bills are slowly being paid off, I'm spending even more money on school and eventually, I'll be self-sufficient again.

Getting kinda off topic here, I'm halfway between what Forks is saying and what everyone else is saying. Yeah, you'll probably have to find a job that's 'beneath you', but if you don't mind living at home and your parents don't mind, then you're not hurting anyone. It's either that or a McJob and a batchelor apartement on the wrong side of the tracks.
