<prompt> Human: I have this dream of living in the mountains. Skiing is what you could consider my happy place, so moving to South Lake Tahoe has been on my mind. In theory, it seems perfect. I could rent a room for maybe 400, still attend community college, work part-time, and ski on my down time.Of course, theres more to consider here. I dont know how much my mother would be willing to support me financially, but even if she did help, I dont know if it would be possible to live on my own at this point. I am currently working 25-30 hours a week and bring home about 250 a week, and assuming Id be working around the same amount of time up there, I dont know if it would be possible. Am I crazy for thinking this might work? What might be good work to keep the cash flowing in? I dont want to accumulate a bunch of debt, as attending community college should allow me to avoid that for now. Thanks for any advice.  <response>: Almost no one lives on their own right out of high school. Roommates are the norm. Is this totally financed by mom? Is she willing to pay for you to spend your free time near Tahoe instead of studying or working? Is that work part-time thing going to cover costs?This is a simple trade off. Can you get the community college classes you need there? Is it worth it to you to pay rent instead of saving? Can you afford to ski once you are there?
