How much money did you save up before moving out?

Grew up about 2 hours east of Edmonton. Went to university right after high school. I was at home for summers until after the 3rd year, when I lived away from home permanently. It would have been smarter economically, but I wanted to enjoy being on my own. No savings at all, was attending university on student loans (finally paid those off, wahoo!).

I moved away for university, but after that and some traveling, I found a job super close to my parents' place, which is pretty rural so there isn't much to rent around here. I'm back living with my parents, and I hate it. I'm planning to stay for the winter to keep my commute short, and then probably move out next spring.
