Special needs children have always remained at home and are not the majority of that 52% still at home.
We have a perfect storm of cultural and economic issues causing this.
Have you looked into special needs villages?
My adult son is still at home. He joined my husband in his business and remained at home to save up to buy a house for cash. He bought a fixer upper at the beginning of the pandemic and then the resulting supply chain issues and inflation delayed the fixing up for a year.
They are just now finishing the new siding and after that we start gutting the interior. So he will probably move out this fall.
My youngest daughter and sil are moving in with his parents because their rent is doubling on the first. So they plan to live in the basement for six months and buy a house next January. Which was always their original plan, but the rent doubling would eat up what they are currently saving every month.
I can’t park in my garage because it’s full of everyone’s furniture!
However, I suspect that productive adult children living with parents to achieve a financial goal aren’t the majority of the 52% still living at home or there wouldn’t be a labor shortage.
You’re saying there are more jobs now than before COVID?
You’re further saying that I should discount the previous question and also discount what I observe locally?
This is not reasonable, FRiend.
Where?
How many?
How much?
Enough to afford the COL?
As an economic libertarian I agree. That’s not really my question. The market is the net result of innumerable factors and, as I’m sure you know, the genius of the market is its ability to boil them all down to price. I just puzzle over what some of the most salient factors are that drove such a sudden change in the price of labor.
Sorry, should have elaborated more. The generous offers were by several LLCs. Market value increased about a third of what I posted which is still too high for not doing anything to the dwelling in a year and a half.
Wait, let me get this straight: You earned enough flipping burgers for four months to kick off until next April?!
Really?!
Did you register for Unemployment Benefits / are you otherwise "on the dole?"
And are you, like, 17 years old, and still living with your folks?
A bold statement like yours demands some sort of explanation.
