To stay or not to stay?

[RisingStars]

Hello,

I am thinking about leaving my parents home and rent a own apartment in the city where I go to school.
There are quite a few reasons why I want to leave home.
Not only is it a "toxic" work environment, its also logistically pretty stupid to live here:
-Long hours to ride the train/bus to school or gym.
-I don't get along with my parents pretty well.
(Main problem, don't want to go to much into detail here its just annoying to fight over things over and over again. Already tried solving it the "Carnegie Way"
-Lack of privacy.
-Town with 10.000 ppl. nothing really is here whats holding me.

So: I got 3000€ in savings, the ability to make some side money (I made 2000€ a month ones with "hustling"), in germany we have child support which is 184€ a month.

Rents are around 400€ (with heat and stuff), so I need a job to survive, but I still got 1 1/2 year of school ahead of me.
Sadly I don't have a working business currently.

The own apartment would bring me into a situation where I have to make it work. I leave my comfort zone. I start a business or I have to work a 450€ basic job for the rest of my (school-)life or even life.

Do you have any hints for me? How would you decide or did you had the same decision to make it your life and did it/not did it?

I would appreciate your help.

First off, I would recommend getting some sort of income stream in place, whether it is a job or side hustling or whatever. Take a month to get some sort of income stream in place. Then I say go for it! What's the worst that can happen? You'll live and worse case scenario it makes you a stronger person.

Sink or swim man! That' the best way to learn, IMO.

I get where you're coming from.

Get a job, take the plunge. Don't burn any bridges with your family though.

I start a business or I have to work a basic job for the rest of my life.

This.

Write it on your bedroom wall.

Keep reading, keep putting yourself out there.

If you throw enough **** against the wall...

Thank you @MindWarrior and @MichaelGrey my goal now is to get a income stream which works out.
I am into importing for some time and also did craigslist hustling.

Before I move out I will get a side job, so I dont depent to much on the importing, since it wont be to secure in the beginning.

Around 1000€ a month would be a great income to pay for all living expenses and still got some money to save.
