I’m 22, and I love my parents, I appreciate the housing, but I am so miserable because I’m not being stimulated. I want to grow, to learn what it means to fend for myself without having a backup. I feel stale, like a dull knife. I know my parents work hard for me to live comfortably, but comfort doesn’t build strong people.
Well said. I hope you're working to something now
Same here
I see your very self aware. You will go far in life🔥🔥
I was just telling my grandad how certain people can feel like this even if you got everything you need he said dont care what people say but I said it’s not what people say it’s feeling like your parents helping you don’t bring drive into your heart give you that motor you looking for
You just described my situation perfectly. Even the age haha. Hope you’re doing well man.
I’m 21 and sick of feeling like I’m always in the wrong despite working a job while enrolled in college and giving my mom
Money to help pay HER rent. I did it Bc we’re family and Ik she’s a single mom but it just sucked when I hit the lowest point in my life and she treated me like a lazy slob. I have a job but it’s not cutting it, so I’m getting a second job nightshift at a warehouse to save up and get the hell on. Ik it won’t be easy having no support but some people my age have kids and are making it work so I’m not doubting myself any longer. It’s happening. Thankful for the tips and advice!
@@KapQueen Girl please . First of all you don’t know how much she chips in and even if, it’s none of your business. They expressed well how bad it was for them but they are holding on and here you are trying to tear them down when they’re doing their best. And whatever she wants to use for money for since you wanna mention “ weaves “ is again none of your damn business. Again, you don’t know how much they chip in but the mother is the one getting prg and clearly being a nuisance to someone’s mental health, that’s on her.
Parents choose kids and should support them, not other way around. Don’t feel guilty for not supporting parents. They messed in life not u.
I felt imprisoned when I was at that age, not only by my home life, but by high school as well. They were suffocating!!!!!
I loved college! College was a safe haven.
Same!
@@ReggieBryant I went to more college than home
Almost 18, sick of this unsupportive environment. Life starts now, fresh slate. Here we go.
U commented this 3 months ago how are u?!
How are you?
@@it_is_muffin445 pretty fuckin great compared to how I was when I wrote this comment… still have LOADS of improvement space obv but my god if this isn’t a step up from that time, I mean… I actually know what I want do in life, and I set some personal boundaries and don't get stepped on by others
@@vicrattlehead8665 that is awesome man wish all the best and chase your dreams
@@vicrattlehead8665 big wins. pick up guitar some day
a lot of people think it's impossible to move out straight after high school, but bro I'mma leave straight away
It can be done, you got this!
Same like idk where ur frm but in India , everyone says my parents are soo strict they won’t let me leave
Like I got those parents too but ur a fucking adult now-
So stop blaming things on them fr- 💀
And same I’m gonna do the same thing-
In the U.S depending on what city you live in moving out after highschool is nearly impossible unless you score a really good job
The average rent in the U.S is 1,124$..... then factor in monthly food
Car note and or insurance
Gas/light/water
Gas for car
Phone bill
Easily can be a monthly bill of 2,000$.... so just factoring that in, the majority of people are not living on their own, and the people who live on their own for the most part score cheap rentals, if you’re lucky, but having a roomate cuts rent in half
Same I’m tired of living in a single wide trailer for 16 years
@@realtruth1448 you can rent a room
Thank You for this. i’m trying to move out by the end of the year at 18. hopefully this will work out
You got this!
Same girl we got this 💕
me too, november ! we got thai
this*
You absolutely can do this! It's scary yes, but if you keep your priorities right and meet your goals you can totally do anything!
im 16 but have been plotting to move out since i was 11, i have 2 years left and i can’t believe its almost happening. Im vowing to myself that i will not fall into the trap of peer pressure and laziness! Thanks for sharing your experience🙏!
I'm about to turn 18 in November and moving out in April and it's hard but it keeps you motivated 10k in savings is a good plan that's what I'm doing with my Cadillac paid off and I paid off a iPhone 12 that way every year whenever the new one comes out you get it fir free because you trade it in
Have a source of monthly income and don’t spend it until you move out
Man I'm 15. I have three years left.
I’m 16.5 let’s go 1.5 more years to go 😭
@@blaze8643 more time to save money, I was in your situation and kept telling myself I have time, now I have 8 months left and $0
Loved hearing your story. I moved out at 18 and never looked back. Love my family but needed the space!
Road to FIRE Thank you!!
How do I move out when it's just my mom and brothers and sisters. No protection once I leave
I'm planning to move out pretty soon. I am afraid. I wanna work for 4 months to have a nice cushion.
@@kol628yes save up as much as possible trust me
Appreciate your honesty. I just recently moved into my own apartment by myself. It's truly surreal and I'm doing my best to build confidence and never look back. Life is insane. I have no family at all either, it's literally just me and I have to make this work.
Stay srong 👍
Im really determined to move out at 18 this September, I already have a budget and work plans and spaces. It will be a lot of responsibility to take on so quickly, but I want my own life.
That’s awesome, I wish you the absolute best!
yes me too! im planning to buy my own car by september and move out by december. im scared for the backlash from my family but i need to do it for myself :) best wishes to you
@@anaaez4128 have you done it yet, I haven't been happy at all and I'm 17 rn turn 18 in January. Never had a job I want to to work and make my own money to the extreme, but being held back by my father who prioritize school over every aspect of my life . I need to start my own foundation and life and I legit have a vision in what I want. Art, music, streaming. I'm just on limit for everything
@@silenthilll_ I’m in a similar situation, except my parents prioritize themselves over my life, they just use me to boost their own gain, I turn 18 next august
Updates?
I’m 25 and just moving out tomorrow morning. Excited but nervous. Thank you for your message
I’m happy for you!! Thanks
What an amazing video Reggie! I also moved out at 18 and I grew so, so much! Thanks for sharing your story! :)
Im planning to move out by the end of the year. Despite how my family will feel about it, i need to focus on my feelings. Im tired of being under their rules and way of life. I love them but i also love my happiness and mental health. I hope all goes well for everyone else in this same journey!! I turn 18 on September 18th so this is a special year! Im going to take control of my happiness :)
I hope you got the chance to move!!! Wishing you alot of happiness❤️👏🏾
hiii! how did it gooo
Did you move out? And how was it?
how are you?
Bro you are so motivating! I just shared your video with like 5 people! I especially love that you touched on not getting stuck in victim mentality and walked us through how all you owned up. Keep doing the work you’re doing🙏🏽🙌🏽 Thank you!!
Thanks for watching and sharing! I’m glad this was motivating!!
Thank you for sharing your story! It is so important to share with others. Life lessons learned the hard way but very memorable.
Thank you!
Your story is inspiring, thank you for sharing the lessons you learned.
😀
Oh my God. Thank you so much for doing this video. May God Bless you richly. I have 4 teenage grandchildren that are coming up to that point and I feel so blessed to be able to share this with them. What a True Treasure. Thank you so very much.
Thank you so much, I’m glad you enjoyed and found value in this!!
Wow, this is just what I needed. Thank you so much!
Reggie, Your video has helped me understand the behavior of my son better. He moved out a few months ago at the age of 18. So many things we warned him about he is learning the hard way. As a Mom, it is painful to watch and not try to help fix it but his Dad has helped me understand that our son needs and wants to figure it out himself. Thank you for your words of wisdom to younger people. Now here is some advice from an older generation, If a person hasn’t had children yet , especially grown children, they probably won’t understand the importance of this. If you’re not already, Set aside a few minutes to call your parents at least once a week and tell them about what’s going in your life. It will mean alot to them.❤️😊🤗
i love this so much thank u for being straight up, I want to move out when I'm 18 and I see a perfect plan and was trying to find videos of people doing the same and trying to find problems I might have but they just sugarcoat their videos so THANK YOU for this
Glad you enjoyed 😊
Reggie,
This is priceless! Wish more young people would be focused like this. Good advise for all young men. Things I didn’t teach my boys. I can only hope they will come across these videos and apply your lessons in their lives. God bless. Your parents must be very blessed.
Thank you!!
Discipline is really important , everyone needs it. Thank you for this 👏🏽
Thank you!
Wow! This was incredible. I only wish that every young man, every man listens to this. Thank you so much for sharing your life experiences and keeping it so real.
Thank you so much! 😃
Those limitations are the ethos of the young man you have become level headed grounded and structured thinking and also clear headed. Thank God for the parents you have. They haven my respect...uk subscriber 67 years old. Keep your feet firmly on the ground. God bless
Thanks for the positivity! I really appreciate it
Thanks for the inspiring video I’m trying to prove my independence to my parents now that I am going to college. But I still feel like no matter how hard I try I can’t gain that independence while still living with my parents.
That’s exactly how I felt 💯
Thank you for sharing this, along with your insights...
Thank you for this. I recently graduated and am planning for my own place. I appreciate the honesty and what to expect.
You got this 💯🤙🏾

#bingeworthy
Thank you for sharing this story. I did the same thing as you--moved out without a plan and had to dig myself out of such a hole. We did it tho! 👏
Thanks 😊
Thank you man this has given me a lot to think about before i move out in 2 years
I’m glad you enjoyed! More moving out videos will be posted soon
Great story man. You have a great head on your shoulders!
Thank you!!
Great video buddy.
hoping to have 10k in savings by the time i move out at october 1st. i’ll be 18 in september. i’m scared but ima make this happen
You got this. Make it happen!!
If you don’t mind me asking, how much do you have saved now? I currently have a little over 2k saved up, and I am currently working on a calendar date for having 10k. That’s a lot of money to save lmao.
im going to 18 in september too! on the 18th. untill then, i planning to save and prepare
@@Kevin_burgess get into investing your $ to make more
@KASHMAER bro I stay in California I can’t go door to door offering services maybe south south or somewhere less cityish
Thank you for helping me realize so much...I am 21 and moving out very soon.
I’m 23 and I live at home with my mom. Living with your parents doesn’t make you “weak” or “privileged”. There’s no need to dump yourself in the deep end to prove that you’re strong. Focus on yourself and your finances & build habits while IN your moms home. Don’t let other people’s circumstances push you to make a poor financial decision. I know dozens of people that was eager to move out and wished they had stayed at home with their parents so they can invest more aggressively. If you’re reading this and you live with your parents, strategize your life REGARDLESS if you’re living alone or not. You’re not weak for having a safety net, you’re more prepared, because let’s face it, you’re going to experience the real world and get tougher with or without prepared financials. And for those that move out early due to poor circumstances or eagerness, I’m proud of you for making the jump but tread carefully on words you use around those that haven’t made the leap yet. Keep in mind there are people that stay with mom and pop maybe because mom and pop need them. Focus on yourself. Your finances. Your objectives & YOUR health❤️
bum
well said. Its the classic american mindset that you HAVE to move out at an early age. It really depends on your goals and ambitions.
I appreciate this!
I'm 18 turning 19 next month and I'll be going to university next year and I'm going through exactly the same thing that you went through when you were 17 in terms of wanting to move out and not returning back home ever again.
Respect brotha💯
Thank you 🙏🏾
Appreciate this.
Thank you!!
Nice message brother, thank you and good luck in life
Such a wise man! God bless him & cover him
🙏🏾
Thanks reggie am planning on moving out as soon as am 18 years ..please make more videos like this ...am new to your channel
You got it! 🫡
This video alone just made me subscribe. Salute king.
Thank you bro! Salute
Great advice. Thank you
Thanks!
I'm 16 and planning to move out at 18 to pursue studying abroad because I felt that moving out from my parents house would be a great decision for my self-growth and also a great start for me to become independent and responsible for my own life. I Just don't want to be burden for them anymore...
Thank you. I’m trying to finish school due to be being in and out of it. I want to move out so bad.. have to prioritize
Absolutely! Prioritization is key
Fantastic advice dude. I’m 19 going to college in september.
Much appreciated!! I wish you the best
I needed this
Great video , thank you.
I like the way you think! Thank you for this video :D
I appreciate that, thank you! 😄
I took the chance and put a security deposit down for my first spot! I have to break the news to my parents this Wednesday and I am dreading it. Thank you for this video !
I wish you the best. Thank you!
You're inspiring to me Reggie. I went through a lot of this myself. Thanks for this video and the confidence you have given me. I greatly appreciate it bud.
Thanks 🙏🏾
wow the respect thing made alot of sense. cant wait until im finally financially independent
Thanks! A lot of people don’t think about the respect part at all
this was very motivational cause im going through this my first year of college and it really made me think
I’m glad I could help!
This is amazing thank you 🥰🥰🥰🥰
🙏🏾💯
Oh.. the thing that pushed me the most was when I told my Mom and dad that I was moving out my dad looked at my mom and said he’ll be back don’t worry. Now there were two ways that I could take that , 1 a reverse psychology thing or 2 He had no faith in me , he knew that I wasn’t ready something in me my actions told him that I couldn’t do it. Which hurt more but kick started that school yard phrase “ I’LL SHOW HIM “
Not a Single dislike. Nice stuff man
Thanks!
I’m 16 and I can’t wait to leave. I’m not coming back either. My parents are so strict that if I text someone they block that person through Verizon. They have screen time that runs 24/7 through my phone. And dad is drunk half of the time. I’m trying to figure out how to make sure I can sustain myself once I leave. But I’m hoping I can figure it out. And soon.
I believe in you I’m rooting for you
Hey man!!! It's been 2 years, how're you doin?
@@Malin0vkka been a lot better. lowkey realized that it wasn’t that bad and that i was overreacting
Trying to move out ,not from my parent's home but from my country ..hopefully i can make it by the end of next year.
This is the most important video I've ever came across with moving out.
That means a lot! Thank you!
Moving out tomorrow, just curious to see some other perspectives before I head out 😎
Same here heading out in 2 days good luck brotha 💯🤘
Same with me
I will move out in 4 days ,I just wanted to see someone else's experience
@@heinrichdekok1261 hope it went well for you! About to move out too
@@heinrichdekok1261 how's it going ?
@@mygrandmaisatoaster40 ayo goodluck !
I felt the same thing at 16. I had a full time job and prepared myself to be out at 18. Found an affordable apt thru a friend and never looked back. I didn’t fight or cuss them or anything like that. And I was scared! I learned hard lessons in dealing with men and it was during the crack era. Many of them were addicts and people were outrageous. I always stayed employed so that helped. I look back and realize 18 was very young.
My daughter left at 19 and we barely talk. My 17 yo I put out because she’s so disrespectful fighting me. The police at my house all the time and ambulances cause she claims she’s gonna kill herself broke my heart, now I’m bejng charged with neglect.
Watching these videos now and my heart breaks for everyone.
do you beat your kids? are you strict with them? do u verbally cuss them out? cause that could influence their behavior. look up
Thanks for sharing this. Your videos are very inspiring!
😃
I needed this bro I’m 18 I’m sub
Welcome to the channel bro!!
Ughhhh everything you’re saying is golden
I’m planning to move out to Uni in 4 days and I needed to hear this. Here’s what I picked up:
1. Have a solid plan before moving- packing and moving to the new place, meeting people and preparing for your course.
2. Discipline is key for studies, budgeting and financial independence to the point where you don’t rely on anyone.
3. The world is cruel and will test you physically and mentally and this will test who you are and that’s pretty scary.
4. Pushing through so many barriers by yourself makes the experience so fulfilling as you earn respect for yourself, your parents and your peers.
Thank you so much! Hoping I can do this!
did you move out?
so far this is the best video i've watched on the subject of moving out young. take it from a 16 year old
I really appreciate it!
Yk man, this is huge for me, my parents do love me and all just I'm not in an environment where I can truly live, rn I'm just surviving, this video helped me be prepared as 17 going onto my senior year were I plan to move out in 4 months
I was luckily still living at home when my reality check hit. 2 years later I'm finally about to move in a couple of months and it won't be a struggle move
Hey man, this was really helpful
Thank you for the effort
God Bless
Love from India 🙏
Thank you very much! Shout out to India!
I’m moving out by the end of this year and I’ll be 18 in October, I cannot wait.
You got this! I’m happy for you
Thanks man I plan on leaving today or Sunday
This is exactly what I needed in order to move out
🙏🏾
Im 16 now, 17 in September but I'm making plans, saving money and all to be able to get out, thank you.
You got this!
I really enjoyed this video. I made the choice to stay at home and save my money up for a house. And to help out the family. You were dropping some gems. Are you on any Social Media platforms besides UA-cam?
Myia D thank you! I am also on Instagram (I don’t have much content up there yet but it is in the works!)
Reggie Bryant Great! It would be nice to connect with you besides on UA-cam. 😉.
Thank you for sharing, listening to other people's stories are really inspiring ❤ great video

Absolutely! It’s what I’m here for
Bruh im 18 with no dipoloma in a highly toxic family dead broke currently stuck in a forgine country going back to my home country with no place to live or job man i havent even moved out and life is already tuff hopefully when im on my own I can get on my feet same to anyone going through tuff times rn🙏
Same with Me *
I can't take living with those toxi ass ppl anymore ..
I’m so glad your video came up I’m 17 and I’ll be 18 in October. I got kicked out of my moms house in August 2021 so I’ve been saving money and got a job. Trying to go to community college at the same time so I feel like I’m planning everything ahead of time to avoid struggling.
I wish you the best! You got this!
Upload some videos
Same boss I hate living by people’s rule this sh*t is killing me now , I’m gonna make a move by the end of this year , I hope help me out
Don't know if I will move out then, but it seems it may happen. My parents help me financially with school among other financial obstacles... Not to mention it's nice to have free meals. Will I be able to support myself, stay on the right path, and live a happier life if I go this early? Will I be able to accomplish what I want without putting myself in debt and worse spots?
Thank you for this video 😄
