Moving out soon, I’ve had a bad experience with a previous roommate so I’m skeptical on living with another one. I also like being alone for the most part. I like to socialize sometimes but when I go home I’d like it for me to be just me by myself. Just curious if it’s worth it for me to pay the extra $200-$300 monthly to live by myself? Has anyone done both and can share their experience? I only make $15 an hour, work about 37 hours a week. Rent would be anywhere from $750-$1,000 monthly depending on what apartment I find. I have $40k in savings though. I figured I could afford it but just worried I wouldn’t be making any progress in terms of adding additional money to my savings
