    Default Ahhh....roommates!

    Is anyone else making plans to shack up with eachother to save money and be able to live better due to the bad economy?
    Has anyone else already made the move? And who have you moved in with, or has someone moved in with you?

    It seems everyone in my life, family AND friends, are joining together lately to share expenses and reduce cost of living.

    Just curious.....

    We have a house of 4 at the moment.

    Very smart moves. These are the innovative 'productivity' gains that clueless idiots running shady web-sites ignore when they predict doom & gloom

    The USA has so much excess capacity in terms of
    i) Living Space
    ii) Transportation
    iii) Food Waste
    iv) Clothes

    i.e all basic needs of human beings that if it really really boils down to commodity shortages, we can all cut down by as much as 25-50% on these essentials driving down the commodity prices and inflation to negative territory.

    But, unlike these clueless idiots, we still believe in growing & innovating our way out of inflation and we can afford to bear a little bumps along the path.

    ^ I've lived alone for 5 years and have been thinking about doing the roomate thing again. First I felt embarrased about it. I could care less now.

    ^ Mine do too ! Hence being a little hesitant to shack up with anyone - platonic or not.

    Well the house we moved into is a HUGE 4 bedroom, and plenty of space for all. Everyone (expect me, at the moment) works full time and are gone alot, and my roommates spend alot of time at the bar, haha....

    Me and my husband's share of the rent and utilities is only $400 a month! Plus the cost of whatever we want to grocery shop for and stick in the fridge...
    It's great, having that low of cost to live every month is going to allow us to pay off bills, save money and get ahead. It's gonna take some time but gonna be well worth it.

    I'm definitely thinking about it for the near future (once my lease is up).. rent is getting expensive. I don't want to end up stuck in a lease with someone who I can't trust or rely on though.

    My boyfriend and I had a friend of ours move in with us like 6 months ago. Our property management company was going to raise the rent on our studio, and we were already paying too much, so now we split a 2b/2b and it's 300 dollars cheaper after the costs are divided.

    Hell no. After 6 years of shitty roommates...I'd rather shoot myself in the face than sign up to live with someone else again. Personally I don't need a lot of space; I'm perfectly happy with a 350-sf studio. That's all I need. As long as it's all mine and I don't have to deal with psycho drama-llama housemates. I'll pay a bit more for my sanity, and consider it well worth it.

    If things ever got dire, I'd seriously live in my CAR before I'd ever live with a roommate again.

    Bottom line, roomates equal trouble...
