Well, I'm in my twenties, and I'm not ashamed to admit I still live at home. With today's housing market, I pretty much have to until I can save enough for a place of my own (or whenever that stupid Gateway Midtown project is done so I can move into my condo, but that's another story). Anyways, I've never thought of moving out and renting. I mean, if I were to do that, I might as well live at home and give my parents the money instead, which I'm actually doing right now.
Besides, like I care how other people view me. I mean, why do I need to impress other people if I'm comfortable with my lifestyle? I tell people at work all the time I still live at home. Heck, my mom still packs me my lunch, and I love it. And all the while, I'm still able to save a decent amount for when I eventually do move out, which will probably be when I get married.
And I can honestly tell you my parents would rather I live with them than me moving out.
