9 Signs You're Just Not Ready For Real Life

You’re thinking about doing another degree

A Masters in Social Science? Sounds like something that could come in handy in future. We all know that person has more letters in front of their name than life experiences. Time to get a job!

 

2. It's Clearly Obvious By Looking At Your Bedroom You Aren't Ready..

3. On A Night Out You Refuse To Go Home Before The Afterparty.

8. You Haven’t Quite Mastered Cooking

And by mastered we mean even the take away you order tastes like shit.

 

9. You've Never Even Considered The Concept Of A Savings Account.

Because without money you can't have fun, and I'm fully open to being proven wrong on that point, but as much as you'll say going for a walk is nicer than going out drinking, or going to the cinema it isn't really worth sacrificing your youth for is it?
