As a young man/lady there comes a time when the urge to just leave home to stay on your own comes...

But there are things we need to consider or reconsider before making such moves..

1. *Shelter* - This is very paramount, some people hear of how someone travelled to a place, lived under the bridge until they found luck or luck found them.

But the reality of things is when you find yourself under the bridge, you become more or less like a bush meat (very vulnerable).

You are open to cultists forced initiation & attacks, police brutality, Cold and you feel it even more on a rainy day, and be you so decent you will loose every trust once you are known to be a street boy...

- *Bills & Levy* - If you rent an apartment it doesn't stop there, there's such a thing as light bills, Buying water if you are not in an apartment where water runs in your house, Security Levy, etc You may have to spend money every day.

- *A New Identity* - In your family house neighborhood you may be high esteemed by virtue of your parents influence but when you rent a house you are all on your own people may address you simply as Tunji Arsenal. And you work very hard to earn whatsoever respect attached to your name.

- *You Become Overly Calculative* - this is non-negotiable as you will learn to accept it in your very first month living alone. You tend to have a very funny scale of preference that is only understanding and true to self.


I will drop my pen here while you all add to this so we can give our intending Osanle brothers a Caveat Emptor of what they want to venture into...
