Move out or not?

plumBeechwood7549 April 13th, 2023

I'm from a place where it's not a thing to move out of your house as a social requirement. And I live with my family in a pretty big place. However, with all its perks, I need some much needed independence and space now. I was in a huge financial debt till now so it never ever occured to me to move out. And now I can afford to.


Another issue is that I have a business which isn't doing great. So I got a job. Which is how I have been able to be financial better. And to revive my business, I need to invest a significant amount in it. So now my issue is, if I don't move out, in the next few years I can restart my business since I'm not sure about the safety of doing this job. Also, my current life without moving out can be quite privileged because I save up significantly on rent. I can travel, buy a car and do so much more.


BUT if I don't, I will never get that freedom and space I desire. I will be at peace and finally have a space only for myself which I desperately need for my mental health. It will also help in distancing myself froma toxic environment and relatives. Of course traveling will be out of question. I will only be surviving. My social life is anyway dead but it can be revived if I don't move out. And I don't think I can ever revive my business..


I'm have an open mind right now and I'm evaluating what to do. I can go either way, or even no way. But I need to take some decision..

No one can tell you want to do.

I say you ask yourself, what are you willing to give up? It is worth what you may gain afterward? It is stable/sustanable? How will this look like in the next 2-5 years?

List out realistic pros and cons of moving out. Whether that be on a business level or with your mental health. Write it all down, and then compare which list you will feel more like yourself. Choose what is best for you.
