<prompt> Human: First, realize youll have to put your mind in a position of a slightly different culture: I live in Spain, where the average age for leaving your parents house and care was 29 years old in 2012, and were still in deep recession.As for personal background, I am a 22 year-old yet to be software developer, Ill finish my degree in less than a couple of months. Ive had a part time job for 8 months, and my company and I have agreed to go full time as soon as I finish my degree. The company is interesting to me, and I consider it a great oportunity for personal growth, not actively interested in leaving. Student loans are rare here, and I have 0 debt: My parents paid for the degree, it has been only about 7000usd. I have calculated the possible savings renting a small apartment when I go full time, accounting for every expense, and it results in about 5000usdyear even stretching it a little, which is not much. Not having to pay for food and housing could be a 21000usdyear savings. My sister is 3 years older than me, and still living in this house. My parents WANT to keep me home, so it is not like Im pressured to leave at all.What should I do? I dont feel any shame staying here for some more years, but on the other side I really want to live by myself. Is the experience of living alone worth not having a considerable savings fund?  <response>: Youll have plenty of time to live alone - Id take the cash unless your parents drive you crazy.
