So my brother and I both go to school in Chicago. my parents own a really nice luxury condo and we both had the choice to live there, as long as we had a roommate. Personally, i hate roommates so I decided just to get a studio. Its cute, but its no where near as nice as what he has. Even though he has to share with someone else, the building is so nice and there are so many amenities its crazy. Im totally jealous of his living arrangement and its driving me crazy! any help?

The only person you need to be upset with is yourself. You made the choice to not have a roomate. He chose to have one. You shouldn't be jealous, look yeah his digs are nice but, he has to constantly worry about someone elses mess, along with everything else that goes with having a roommate.

Is there any chance that your brother could be your roommate? That way you won't have to live with a stranger and you will get all the amenities of living in a luxury condo.

You had (and maybe still have) your chance to live there, so this sounds like a case of "sour grapes" to me.
There's no point in being jealous of your brother because he had the sense to accept your parents' generous offer.
Either get over it, or ask your parents if the offer is still open to you, if you find a roomy.

He's your brother. Don't be jealous of him. Be happy for him.
