I have just graduated from high school and am taking a year off before I continue on with post secondary. Right now I am living at home but my parents and I just don't get along. They are not here much but when they are it sucks. Besides, I do everything for myself anyway.. From cooking, cleaning, laundry, etc..
The thing is, my cousin just asked me to move out to a little apartment with her. I am working part time as of right now. I really want to, the idea is SO SO tempting but I am not sure it's the right thing to do...
If I stayed at home (which is in the boonies) I could save money for school, buy myself a car and therefore have more freedom because I can get myself from point A to point B.
If I moved in with my cousin I would be alot happier, but would have to pay bills and get my own groceries. Which would set back me getting my own car (but I would be in town walking distance from everything, and also she has a car we would be sharing)
What would you do?

Think in long term not short, if picking either direction where will you be in a year? in five years? in ten? Is short time suffering worth attaining long time goals? This is a decision only you can make. It would of been easy to just give you m opinion, instead think about what I have asked, I think you already know the answer. In either case good luck to you, and your decision.

You have to weigh the two on a scale and decide which is more important to you right now. Generally speaking, the sooner you move out the better off you will be. But, you said your parents are not there much, so how bad could it be tolerating them for another year? I suggest you stay there and save as much money as possible.
