What's the point? Like really? I am 24 years old, got a CS degree and working full time. Still living with parents because fuck the housing market. Paying 50% of my pay check on rent? So yeah that's it? You work like full time, have a weekend off and then have some fun? Retire at 70+ when all your health is gone and it is pointless to even pursue activities because your body can't cope? How can millions if not billions of people accept this kind of life? There must be more to it?

I used to be unemployed. It was so fucking boring it was unrealistic. What the HELL am I supposed to do for 170 hours a week? Netflix 16 hours a day, 4 days a week, followed by partying 16 hours a day, 3 days a week? Shit gets so fucking old, so fucking fast.

working remotely, even full time as an employee, helps since you get a lot of the time back that you'd normally spend doing nothing at work, which is just the reality at most jobs.

Get some experience and do your own thing. You're in an in-demand field. With a little work you can easily have your own business or work for small company you can get equity in and not just be a drone.

I'm currently working on an online FPS game that I hope will have a wide market appeal. If this game fails, then I'll continue to work on commercially viable games until I have a successful title.

Imagine everything you could do if you were a NEET. All the projects you could work on, all the things you could learn, all the books you could read read, all the time you could spend with your loved ones, all the things to appreciate that life has to offer if you didn't have to waste five days a week working for somebody else. It's not too late OP.

OP you should rent. Get out there away from your parents and start living life. Take it from someone who thought like you and stayed at home until 28. I am finally happy and going to work every day is worth this freedom and peace.

Trade your freedom for a house
This is the modern way. I always wondered growing up how everyone looked like they had their own place and were comfy in their older age,

Now I realise the bank owns almost all of the houses and mortgage slaves live in them. It’s either that or rent for ever, there needs to be ways making good cash, that future is really depressing to think of

No, ofc it isn't worth it. Live with your parents and save money instead to buy a house. Living alone to be independent is a meme because independence alone isn't a logical reason. You don't need to live alone to prove you can live independently. Also you'll probably have to share a place with other normies because renting a place alone will cost way more than 50% of your salary

I needed to. Parents house was fine but it still felt like childhood. The way to become an adult was to make things happen for myself. I still see them every week but I love my independence.

OP also really needs to get his priorities in order. Money is not the goal itself but a tool to help you do what you want. And it's not the only tool. Better start living life soon, because this is the only one.
