<prompt> Human: Found a place near my work for 2000. Currently paying my parents 500. Only about 7500 in savings as Ive just paid off a ton of debt and am now debt free.Main reason I want to move out other than for a much shorter commute? Bringing a girl somewhere more private. Dating has been pretty hard in NYC without my own place. Idk, maybe its just me. Maxing out my 401k already and wanted to start putting money into a strategy growth fund as well which I can still do but much less if I had to pay more rent as well.  <response>: You should make your own decision where you want to live. I think most 27-year-olds like having a degree of independence.
