Can't meet up with their daily needs. But somehow 7 out of 10 richest pastors are Nigerians.

Guy, don't feel bad for anything. You will find out that majority of them saying that rubbish are still in their parents house eating mummy thank you. I'm not saying anything is wrong with that but don't let them get into your head.

They are not better than you.

This argument used to be more fierce before Nigeria became this bad.

A lot of people have learnt that one doesn't simply leave their parents house.

But there are still teenagers, privileged individuals, women and some stupid people who will die on this hill. They will tell you all sort of rubbish about what age to marry, have kids, have lots of money, have a car, leave your parents house and they always have a way tagging the age very low.

You need to pay them no attention and do your thing. If it hurts them, let them come and chase you out of your parents house or maybe deposit 10m into your account.

To the set of people always bringing this ridiculous talk every year, SHUT THE Bleep UP!

It all depends on the nature of the house or home. I live in my father house in my our apartment and I take care of my self and love one.
In some homes if your dad or mum build a house with plenty of rooms up and door why should I go and rent a house . I should be thinking of how to build my own house for my family and be a landlord.

But if your dad lives in rented apartment and you stay with him never be ashamed one day table will turn . This current Nigeria economy is not easy to survive for the commoners even the average levels.

We don't have enough specifics about the individual to make a determination, but as a rule it is not always a negative. There is nothing wrong with living with your parents at that age but it is utterly wrong if such a one has still not figured out his priorities at that point in life.

There's nothing inherently wrong with an adult living in a multigenerational home with family. The British royals do it, albeit in grander residences than most. I have a relative who married a man from a wealthy family in Morroco. His main family home on an estate has “apartments” within the large structure such that the children could have their own separate apartments while growing up yet technically be living with their parents and dining together at times in a family dining room.

In Hawai’i, it is pretty common. Houses are often built with a full flat or suite on ground level perhaps with a separate entrance for older relatives or an adult couple. There may be one or two stories above it depending on the layout. One of my nephews who lives there went away for college then moved back home to finish. He's working and contributing as an adult now who isn't wasting money by cramming into a tiny, expensive shared flat somewhere simply to say he doesn't live with his parents. When he is ready to buy something, he will have a solid down payment. When his parents travel, they don't have to worry about housesitters or kenneling the dogs unless all of the family is going somewhere at once. There are more hands to help with cleaning and preparing all of the meals and parties that include extended family and friends too.

Are there some people whose living situation might raise a red flag? Yes. However, there are likely to be numerous other signs if the person is incapable of successfully living an adult life independently.

See, you don't need to feel depressed, my own life has taught me harsh lessons.

Let's say you have a very good bowmanship, and your target is a bird.
You already did all you could to achieve that level of mastery.

What happens if a strong wind blows immediately you release the arrow? You'll definitely miss your target.

You have already achieved mastery, you can't control the wind, and you didn't even know the wind will blow.

There are some things in life that we can't change, time and chance happens to all things.

I can tell you that many rich people are not necessarily hard working and smarter than many poor people.

The same music that made someone rich is the same music someone inevested in and went flat broke.

I got some jobs offers in this life that I never applied for. I'd just be in my room and an old time friend could call me to bring my resumé somewhere, and that's it. I'd have the job but there is someone out there who is checking from one firm to the other and still no success.
And someone will come out and open their mouth to say if you are still broke at 35 you are a failure..

I'm not a Buddhist but I enjoy some teachings of Buddha. He said "when people go thru difficulties in life, they shouldn't try to change it because they may not be able to change it, it's prolly a karma from their previous lives.

As long as you are not dead. Anything is possible
There are some things that we just don't have control over, no matter how hard we try. Life happens.

But just do your best, so you can be justified.

FRANCISTOWN:


I moved out of my parents house at 16, not because of anything but because my dad was too difficult and we didn't get along. Didn't want to be in his shadow.

For the next 2 years I was in the streets of Aba, from MCC to Osisioma, to Ariara to Ngwa to Umuojima joggling between 2-3 jobs.

I gained admission and would only go home for maybe a week or so, other days I was busy doing my own thing.
After I finished NYSC, i invested in a right business which turned out to be wrong and I went flat broke.

I moved back to a single room and started doing all kinds of things to survive. It was so bad that I had to go back to my parents house for one month before I got my shit together again.

Honestly as I tell you, there were some of my friends who were still in their parents house until they were 30, but now they are so rich and successful that I don't even come close at all.

The point is, whether you leave your parents house at 16, 26 or 36.

What works for everyone is different. Some guys are making 10Mil monthly and they are still living with their parents.

Some just love the company of their parents. Don't pressure anyone, let people live the way they want

NICE POINTS HERE

No harm done. I wish I lived with my parents for ever. I got married and I had to move on. Some people live alone and are not disciplined, while some stay with their parents and are responsible. Vice versa
