It might be the only way you CAN save any money these days. I was (kinda) lucky in that my only surviving parent is elderly, has a huge home so I was able to move in with her to be her caretaker - now I’m finally able to save money since I no longer have rent payments. It’s a trade off but it has helped me get a little bit ahead.
It’s gotten ridiculous enough I’m considering a digital nomad life just so I can save up some money.
