My brother used to say there were five must haves, and I thought I'd share it here, just for fun...although I am not sure I necessarily agree with all of these but, here goes:

1. Must have job
2. Must have car
3. Must not have never been a man (again, these were my brother's)
4. Must not live with parents
5. ****, I can't remember the 5th...

Kind of seems like a stupid list to me. I've lived in many places where a car was unnecessary, and I know people who live with their parents and take care of them, or have separate garage apartments with their parents, having a job is important but what I would say is they must be independent - doesn't have to be employed to be independent, as far as #3, well, that's personal preference.
