    Is this a common sentiment? I had roommates until I was 27 and to me it was the normal way for young, single people to live. I never thought of my roommates as a burden or considered living without them a high priority.

  Or OnlyFans!

  Clearly people need to do things other than live on their regular wages or the author didn't think of it!
