<prompt> Human: I currently live at home and Im finally thinking about moving out. I just can not decide whether I want to rent or own a house. I currently make 65,000 yr, have about 10k in savings, 0 CC debt, and about 9k in student loans. My credit score is 725.The house Im currently looking at is 169,000 but Im scared to buy because I dont know if my work will want me to move anytime soon. Renting seems like Im just throwing my money away. The cheapest places to rent around here are 900 month minimum. Please help this 22YO make decisions  <response>: I say rent because your work location is unstable, you dont have 20 saved up for your downpayment, youre young, you can pay off your loans first, etc. Your rent money is thrown away for the luxury of being able to move easily, not having maintenancerepairhouse-related bills, etc. In a few years your student loans should be gone, you should have a sizable down payment saved up, and youll likely have a better idea of how your job will go. You can reevaluate then.
