'I'm Not Sure Where to Go From Here': 27-Year-Old Asks Reddit If Moving Back Home Is Her Only Option
It's common for young adults to move out of home shortly after graduating college, especially if they spent their college years in student housing. However, living with your parents for a few years after graduating college offers several financial advantages, and a 27-year-old is considering those benefits. She graduated with an information technology degree last year but hasn't yet found a job in her field. She's currently working part-time at a fast food restaurant and feels like she is wasting her money on rent. Furthermore, she has bad credit. "I'm not sure where to go from here," she stated. Redditors offered their advice and shared their experiences with living alone and moving back to their parents' house.

Many Redditors encouraged the 27-year-old to move back home to rebuild their finances. A few people shared their success stories of moving back home and paying off debt. "I was able to create a savings [account] and have enough money to pay off a good chunk of my debt!" one Redditor explained. It's easier to build your finances when you live with your parents because you will have fewer expenses. You won't have to make monthly rent payments, and some of your other expenses will be covered as well. It also helps when multiple people can run errands like grocery shopping and laundry instead of all of those responsibilities falling on one person.

The 27-year-old may have that concern since she was worried about the post getting a lot of downvotes because she is considering moving back home in her late 20s. While young adults may hear stories about how their parents married and bought a house in their late 20s, they had an easier financial environment than Gen Z. One Redditor mentioned this in the comments so people wouldn't feel as bad about moving back with their parents or feel like they aren't progressing as much as they would like to. "The times we are in are very different from when your parents and grandparents were in their prime. Housing is not affordable; inflation and the value of the dollar places you at an insane disadvantage. Lower/Middle-class families can only get ahead by banding together. No shame in survival," one commenter you have a good relationship with your parents, moving back in with them can lead to plenty of pleasant memories. It's easy to forget that the people we cherish will eventually no longer be with us. Finances aren't the only driving force between more people living with their parents. People who love their parents may just want to spend more time with them. Some people do not move out until they get married. Other commenters suggested staying at home until you find a more stable job. "It was good to keep in touch with my parents again, help out a bit in the house until I could get my income back up and move out again," one Redditor said about their experience.

Goa IT dept designated to issue right of way NOCs
Panaji: The state cabinet on Wednesday designated the department of information technology, electronics, and communications (DITE&C) as the issuer of all permissions/NOCs under the Telecommunications Right of Way (RoW) Rules, 2024. The rules allow telecom service providers to put up infrastructure, such as cables and towers, on public or private property. State government directed all other line departments to conduct surveys, prepare reports, and submit them to DITE&C for processing the permissions/NOCs for telecommunication infrastructure on the RoW eServices Portal developed by the Centre, within the RoW Rules' deadline. The new Telecommunications Act, 2023, was enacted by Parliament and came into effect on June 26, 2024. Subsequently, Telecommunications Right of Way Rules, 2024, were enacted and came into force on January 1, 2025. The new rules replace the previous rules/policy and introduce new regulatory provisions. These rules aim to help in speeding up the expansion of telecommunication infrastructure, enhancing connectivity, and reducing procedural delays. The Indian Telegraph Act, 1885, was replaced by the Telecommunications Act, 2023, and the Indian Telegraph Right of Way Rules, 2016, were replaced by Telecommunications (Right of Way) Rules, 2024. The Goa Telecom Infrastructure Policy, 2020, becomes infructuous by virtue of the act. Considering the importance of implementing the directions in Goa, state government adopted the new Telecommunications Act, 2023, and the Telecommunications (Right of Way) Rules, 2024. The Goa Telecom Infrastructure Policy, 2020, stands withdrawn by the operation of law to give way to the new Telecommunications (Right of Way) Rules, 2024. All state government departments, urban and local bodies, and government corporations in the state must implement the Telecommunications Act, 2023, and the Telecommunications (Right of Way) Rules, 2024.

Govt working on national framework to drive GCC expansion into smaller cities: MeitY secretary
Hyderabad: The Union ministry of electronics & information technology (MeitY) is developing a national framework to accelerate the expansion of global capability centres (GCCs) across states, particularly in smaller cities, MeitY secretary S Krishnan said on Wednesday at the Nasscom GCC Summit in Hyderabad. Krishnan highlighted the govt's focus on promoting GCC development in smaller cities, referencing successful programmes like Karnataka's 'Beyond Bengaluru' and Tamil Nadu's 'Tidal Neo' parks. He also pointed to successful GCC operations in Kochi, Coimbatore, and various locations in Rajasthan. He said tier-2 and tier-3 cities provide notable benefits for GCCs, such as reduced operational expenses and improved staff retention, while emphasising that this initiative would not diminish existing major technology centres. "We cannot separate out and clearly make a demarcation saying this is a policy intended only for tier-2 and tier-3 cities," he said, pointing out that ease of doing business measures for GCCs would apply across India. Regarding the GCC initiative, he said, "GCCs fundamentally are about increasing the number of higher quality jobs and improving job quality. These centres bring higher-order functions and tasks to India as part of the global value chain." "More higher-order jobs of engineering, engineering R&D, product development and so on are coming into India…We believe it meets the aspirations of the youth and people looking for higher quality jobs. Ultimately, if they don't leave the country and work out of here, that also improves whatever is happening in the country because they then spend their salaries within the country and increase economic activity. Eventually, even entrepreneurship and innovation is very often born out of these GCCs," he added. He said the ministry's approach involves creating a flexible framework instead of strict policies to encourage GCC expansion across states and the strategy aims to assist states in developing their own GCC attraction policies whilst ensuring coordination between central and state authorities. Responding to industry regulatory concerns, he assured govt backing for innovation and business development. He said India's digital economy, which stood at 6-7% in 2023, is projected to increase from its current 12-13% to approximately 20% of the national economy by 2030. Regarding AI regulation, he confirmed the govt's commitment to avoid implementing regulations that might restrict innovation.
