This has gone long enough. I seriously think that four grown people can not live under the same roof, esp when two of them has authority over the other two. This has got to end. I need to get out of the house now. Is it possible for sum one to move out on their own without being fully finanically ready? Whats the odds of being successful, i.e. paying all major bills on time.

Let me some this up with bills and what not ok. this is just from my expeirnce.
water 29, electricity 180, food 400, gas 200, phone 50, truck or car depends on how much you make lets just say 250 insurance 100, personal fun and entertainment 100 on your self rent 350 depends where you live. everthing here comes out to be 1309.00 per month. Listen if you can make at least 2000.00 or more then you can make it this harsh world. other than that you can always move in with your parents hell i did tell i found that paid enough for me to move out on my own I made close to 3000.00 as an electrican at that was plenty for me to have a nice car and live a nice single life until I got married will that all changed lol so good luck for now just wing it out till you find out what you can or can not do. The stuff I listed is what I had to pay when I lived on my own, but others some have it better than others like no carpayment of have a good roommate that shares have of everthing.

Moving out on your own is like having kids. People can tell you what it is like and what you will have to do, but you are never fully prepared until you experience it.
When I moved out on my own I was 17 and I literally left my mom's house with a laundry basket full of clothes, a backpack with the basic necessities, my bike and a prayer. I had a job, but only maybe twenty bucks to my name, if that. I stayed with a friend for a couple of weeks, I found a roommate, and was in my own apartment within a month. It was not easy and I spent a lot of time those first few years wondering if I would have enough money for my bills and my next meal. Nonetheless I survived and it is possible.
If you are not in an abusive situation I would recommend holding out for as long as you can. Save up some money, start collecting hand me down furniture and find a place to live. I guarantee no matter how difficult you think life is living with your parents, it is a lot tougher when you are paying your own bills.
Good luck.

Don't let your emotions get the best of you. You will suffer the consequences if you move out before you are able. If it is so bad at home, I suggest spending as little time there as possible. Find some hobbies or activities that keep you away. Commit to saving EVERY penny and move out ONLY IF you are ready to pay your rent, electricity, water, phone and any other bills you have.

You will never feel financial stable enough to move out. However, you should be making a regular paycheck and be reasonable about what your bills will cost you. One piece of advice is that you should always have skills and you should always have a stable bank account that no ones knows about but you. Even after you get married.

Not very good. Its better to be setup finacially and everything before you leave. Because if you leave and can't pay for things who will you turn too, your parents who it sounds like you are trying to get away from. Then most likely you'll end up back home. Trust me I'm in the exact same position. Just try to make peace while you are there. Then leave when you can fully support yourself.

Part of being ready to move out is to be financially stable enough to pay your own bills. If you can't pay them then you are not ready to move out.

Yes. You can be ready to move out even if you don't have the money.
The odds of that someone without money making it....oh 10% chance.

I think so. Im a big believe in " Where there is a will, there is away". I know when I moved out I just worked harder to prove to everyone I could survive out there.
Really it depends on your personality and perseverance and to weather you survive.

Nobody is ever as financially stable as they want to be.
Be prepared to eat peanut butter and jelly and mac and cheese a lot, but it can be done.
