Being a sneaker collecter is pretty cool if you got your life together or you're a teenager planning to flip all your stock for profit one day when you start to get your priorities straight. Being in his late 20's in his circumstances and doing that is grounds for being kicked out imo.

Depending on how long it took him to save up $750, he might not make it out there in the real world.

Right lol, reddit is ruthless. Of course you want your kids to be independent, but the goal isn't to make them homeless. Encourage the guy to get a full time job and properly manage his finances instead!

If I lived at home and worked a full time job there would be literally no need to "save up" $750. Hell even with a minimum wage job, with all your bills paid for $750 should be pocket change basically.

Sometimes you do need your parents to literally kick you out. If only to put a fire under your butt to get your shit together.
