Its impossible to be an authentic individual in mass society since you're expected to conform to a bunch of standards. That much amount of pressure ensures individuals are hammered out and not allowed go express themselves.
On a more practical note, living alone is very hard.
On top of your job you have to attend to a bunch of other responsibilities like cleaning and cooking.
The work-life balance, wages, etc. is so atrocious that you simply don't have the resources available to make life possible.
This is because society absolutely does not want you to be independent and self-sufficient, they want you dependent because that's how they control you.
