I truly don’t want a house at all

I am probably in the minority when I say I don't want a house. What does this have to do with r/antiwork you may be asking? Well, I consider myself more of a minimalist who loves small space with less people in it. I always wanted a small apartment with some house plants and a little shelf of books as well. Maybe a shelf of liquor and a place to smoke when I become 21-years-old and over this April and so forth. I am probably never going to get married and have kids, mostly because life is a huge pile of shit and nothing ever good comes with kids in my opinion besides some happy-go-lucky moments, but eventually, they'll grow up and deal with life as a result of you bringing them here to put up with it. My family is living proof of this, lmao. I work 3 days…

I work 3 days a week and make $294.51 a paycheck and it sucks. I have about $7,280.24 in total, but I feel like it isn't even enough money in my honest opinion. I am in college taking English for an Associate's, but want to take acting classes instead, so for now I am settling for a single Theater 101 class online, since most of them are in person and I don't want to risk my health.

I want to have an amazing career and do something great with my life besides do the usual garbage most people do in typical life-script fashion. My father who I cut ties with permanently, has always told me “To ThiNk BiGgEr” by getting a house, motorcycle, RUV/SUV and it bugs me so much. I didn't even ask to exist to deal with life and I already want out of it. I just want to live the best life in a 1-bedroom apartment and save up most of my cash for a possible early retirement and to make sure I also focus on my 401k plan. I am not so knowledgeable on it yet, but see that it's something that most people in their 20s work on accomplishing.

So I have to work for about 50+ more years since I doubt retirement will ever come in this day and age and to me I rather just live a simple life. I would always think that more is less when I was a young child, but as I've grown older, I've realized that less is more and that I want to settle for that, rich or not rich, like my idiot father tries to bank on me for a successful life. That does seem sweet, but he makes terrible financial choices, him and my mother and it always affects us. My childhood upbringing was terrible because of it and my adulthood years are looking to be pretty drab and miserable. It doesn't help they had me before they were legally able to smoke and drink and didn't properly develop any life skills yet. So what are your guy's opinions on this post and do you agree with what I am saying? Let's start an interesting discussion down below.

P.S, I never want to own a house, unless I meet someone and end up in a relationship, but even then, I would want an apartment, bigger than usual, without the need to slave away nearly 80 hours a week just to keep a house that won't really benefit my life whatsoever.
