<prompt> Human: I currently live about an hour or so from the location where I accepted the job. Ive pretty much lived with my parents my whole life. I went to the community college and the university here locally since they were pretty close. I definitely wouldnt mind finally moving out, but only if its worth it. The job I accepted has a salary of 46k and apartments around the area seem to have rent around 800 for 1 bedroom1bath. The only things I would be taking are my clothes, my laptop, and my ps3, and some basic essentials like my toothbrush, etc. I wouldnt even have a TV yet. I kind of plan to stay at this job for a good 3 years, even if I dont enjoy it. Its a public accounting firm.Pros to moving: Becoming independent. Being only a few minutes away from work. Busy season is 60 hours a week of working.Saving on gas money.Dont have to play it conservative at home.Cons to moving:Having to pay rent. I have no idea how to cook. I can only make really basic things so far.Laundry? How do you do that again?Any suggestions?Assistant: Personally, Id move.Cons to moving:Yeah, youll get to learn how to cook, do laundry, and in general... care for yourself. This is a very good thing.Human: True. Im already 23 and I should learn to do these things myself  <response>: Learning to cook and cook well has been one of the most rewarding experiences of my young life. And I guess to keep it PF oriented, if you can learn to cook and not just order out every night, youll save some serious cash on your food bills.
