No lol I wasn't being sarcastic..it's just I was looking at it very small... like wasting money each month, but really in 2 years a lot can happen, a person can grow change and learn a lot and so the money added up over 2 years isn't as big of a deal if I look at the opportunities for happiness and growth and success it brings me. Also, your post also made me realize that with living alone I could probably earn more since I would be more rested and not have to worry about the stress of working around 6 other people's sleep/work schedules. I could probably earn more to cover the cost of living alone or very close to.

For example right now I work 2 days a week, but on my night rotation takes me at least 3 days of trying to sleep to recover due to the chaos stress of this household. On top of going to school I would barely stay afloat. I can't imagine trying to study in these circumstances....

If I lived alone I could get way better rest and that frees up more time to study or work. So your post really helped me see the whole picture. It was obvious what you said, but my mind was thinking small.
