When I talk about that I decided to still live together with my father people can't understand. Whether it's my colleagues, mom or sister. It's pretty unusual I think. But for me there is no need to rush to move out. With every additional month I'm still living with my father and can save and invest almost my whole salary I'm gaining a little bit of additional financial security. I'm not in a relationship so if I would rent my own flat I would live paycheck to paycheck not being able to invest a single bit... It might be unusual at the moment and I seem like a "looser". But in 20 years when I'm in my 40s it doesn't matter anymore if I moved out at 25, 28 or 30. But because of compound interest financially the difference is gigantic.

I don't see the logic of moving out, staying in your father's place is a wise choice. Instead of paying for your rent, use that amount instead to accumulate savings. This is why people are making bad choices in life, they rush things and don't weigh things out. You are doing a wise decision that everyone else is stupid enough to realize.
Yes! 😁 But I also have to admit that there are situations where people have to move out. For example when they are thrown out, can't get along with their parents or want to move together with their partner. 🤔
