Answer 2

Well, the first thing you should do is request a 2 month extension with the promise to do whatever they ask/ Whatever they ask! You obviously blew it again and they can't take it any longer. I had to do the same with my immature son. He was also over 18 and thought he knew more than his parents.
Next. Get a job immediately! If you don't already have one. Put every penny into savings. The only thing you can spend it on is transportation to and from work! After 1month and 3 Weeks you should have enough saved up for a studio apartment. That's the smallest least expensive apartment available. Good thing is it comes with all the furniture. Next Move in and head for the local thrift store. DON'T WORRY, you don't have to get crappy stuff! You just need frying pans, pots, and utensils. Spend very little. Next after you are moved into you apartment, go to the grocery store and load up on only the basics but tons of it! Leave enough cash for transportation to and from work. After a couple of months of buying only groceries, and gas, you should have an idea of what you can spend on entertainment and stuff for the apartment.
If none of these grown up ideas make sense go stay and leech off your friends. That's what immature brats do!

Step 1. Get a job and keep it.
Step 2. Go to an apartment building and pick an apartment that you can afford. Fill out the paperwork and get the credit check done. Pay any fees.
Step 3. Pack up your things and go on the move in day.
Now you are a productive member of society.

Answer 4

You need a job first and then keep expenses WAY down by having lots of roommates. Privacy may be a problem but you must have chosen to go your own way by not living under their rules. Make a budget and figure out what you can afford. Grande lattes may not in your budget when your independent.

Answer 5

If you don't have a job, find one. Look in the paper for a room or apartment to rent. You will need at least one month's rent for a deposit and the first month's rent to move in. You will need some basic kitchen equipment (pot & skillet, plates, silverware). If you get a furnished room/appartment, you won't need to find furniture. If the room/apartment has all utilities included, you won't have to worry about getting those turned on. If not, be prepared to pay deposits and possibly hook up fees to get them. You can check your local phone book for where to go to do for each utility. If trash pickup is included with the room/apartment, you won't need to worry about this either, if not, see my comments on the other utilities.

Good luck!

Answer 6

Well first make sure you have a good paying job and some money saved up. Start looking for a place, a studio is a good start especially if you dont have much money. Then move in! Good luck!

Answer 7

You need to find out how much it will cost you to live on your own in your area - rent, utilities, phone, insurance etc. You also need to find out how much it is going to cost you to move. Will you need a van to move? Will you need to pay a deposit to have your utilities turned on in your new place. Things like that will get you started and then you just need to pay your bills on time and maintain a job.

Answer 8

First you need to set up a budget plan. What kinda place can you afford, and will still leave you with enough to afford utilities. Is there a roomate you could find? Newspapers, job, get up and just do it. Its not hard once you have a plan.

Answer 9

If you don't have someone to move in with and share the expenses, I sure hope you have some savings. Talk to some friends, look in the paper for homes to share, room mate wanted. If you have colleges in the area, check to see if they have a posting board that has roommates wanted postings.

Answer 10

Well, for me, my situation was quite different. First off, my parents didn't want me as a kid and they made damn sure I knew it. I ran away at the age of 10, my parents didn't bother looking for me. I was taken in by a blues man, Jelly Jam Jar Johnson, who raised me and taught me blues guitar. We traveled around the US on tour, doing the Blues circuts, from the age of 12 on. When I was 18, Jelly Jam Jar died so I retired from music, and he left his house and belongings to me.
