This stuff where commercials play automatically after "trying" to read the article forcing you to close the page has got to stop.

Ho, Ho, Ho, brother! Flagpole's busy right now defending America over in the Trump inauguration thread, but I'm here to help! You see, staying at home until you're at least 30 is a FANTASTIC way to accumulate wealth and simultaneously provide care for an elder. And don't get me started on how this affects your love life. Would you rather be with a woman who drives a used Honda, or a woman who drives a fancy, red state pickup truck?
This is like one of those deals where you have to decide if this is a real story or from The Onion. It would not take much to make it an Onion story.
Is he a "tenant" in the legal sense? (This probably varies by state)
That is very LRCish. But when I think of LRC, I think of stuff like this:

Ridiculous for parents to throw their kid out of the house. When you decided to have kids, you implicitly agreed to take care of them, even if they aren't ready to be on their own as early as others.

You’re kidding right? The guy is 30. The parents have done him a disservice letting him live there rent free with no responsibilities all day those years.

Agree with Rojo on this one. If it's a mutual agreement that a kid stays at home for years to accumulate wealth, that's one thing, but this is obviously not that.
The big picture here is with the declining birth rate, increasing housing prices, and entitled kids, we are becoming increasingly like Europe. Good to know that the mammone are not exclusively an Italian phenomena.

Right. The parents have done him a disservice. Now they're punishing him for it.
Look, the parents are responsible for enabling this man child all of these years. But it is simply irrational to think that an able bodied thirty year old man doesn't have any agency over his own life, even if he has been done a "disservice". This reflects a snowflake mentality. Plus, what is the answer? Keep this guy at home until he is 40, and then irrevocably incompetent to deal with the world?
This whole thing perplexes me. For a lot of reasons, including having a single mother who was unemployed, I was out of the house at age 18 - on my own - no financial help from family anywhere. Now, a track scholarship did help tremendously, but I am hardly unusual in having to rely on an athletic scholarship to go to college. Run a poll on Lets Run and there will be hundreds of people responding they did just as I did. The last thing I wanted to at age 18 was to stay at home or anywhere near home. Poverty was no fun, but it was a mere annoyance compared to not being independent. Just envisioning having to tell my date or girlfriend, "Gee, let's go back to my Mom's basement" was a distressing thought, as was burdening my mother who had gone through enough in life.
I get why some live at home for a while to save money. That's ok - but honor your parents and yourself by making a short term contract with an objective for success.
Why does this reek of LetsRun? I know that "basement dweller" is an epithet that gets thrown around a lot online, but my impression of LR posters is that they're pretty successful in general.
Big deal. 30? Countless millions of 30, 40, and 50 yr olds around the world live with their parents. As a matter of fact, many get married and live in the same house as their parents. The kids then take over the house when the parents pass away and it goes on like that generation to generation. This isn't some kind of anomaly. It's pretty common. Just not in the liberal parts of the US.
