You can go home again! Boomerangers are on the rise.
Named for the nearly eighteen million 18- to 35-year-old
Americans currently living at home, this rapidly growing
phenomenom is becoming a way of life for many college
graduates and adults looking for a rent- and hassle-free way
to get out of debt and plan a course of action for their
futures. Written by Elina Furman, who happily survived
living at home the second time around, this timely,
information-packed guide offers Boomerangers -- both
practicing and aspiring -- wisdom on how to cope with the
practical, economic, emotional, and psychological realities
of moving back in with Mom and Dad. Furman debunks popular
myths, such as that college graduation marks the beginning
of domestic and financial freedom, and offers dynamic action
plans, proven strategies, and practical advice
on: - Taking the plunge -- are
you ready to move back home?
- Making a
financial plan and sticking to it
- Discovering the hidden benefits of living at
home
- Determining whenter you have a
Cool, Reluctant, or Perma-Parent
- Maintaining privacy

and following house rules

stigma

rivalry
With special chapters on
brainstorming new career objectives and dating under your
parents� roof, and featuring inspiring tales from the
trenches by independent and successful Boomerangers,

again, you can survive and thrive there.
