I'm 22, in college, and have no job, I kinda HAVE to live with my parents.
But I try to help out with whatever I can.

29 and living on my own, in a country half-way around the world from my folks.
Haven't properly lived at home since I was probably 20 (just before university) though my parents always said I was welcome to come back if I ever needed to and I spent my share of summers of from school there.
Spent six months on EI as an alternative to home living, just previous to my current situation, because, as much as I love my parents, I couldn't bring myself to live with them as an almost 30-year-old guy. I love them and all, but my hometown isn't exactly bursting with desirable jobs and I think it would be too easy to get in a rut and be stuck there because of it. Many high school chums fell in that trap and will likely never ever see the world as a result.
Fuck that man. Happy where I am now, I have more freedom to travel and do what I want than I ever did or ever would have gotten back in Canada.

I lived with my parents all through undergrad. I wanted to move out, but didn't have the financial means and school was 20 minutes away. I now live about 2.5 hours away for graduate school but still go to visit a couple of times per month for a weekend. They don't mind me being there, but by Sunday, I'm ready to be back in my apartment.
Moved out at 20 years old across the country for school. Look they are good parents we love each other, and they will do anything to help me out...
But we both prefer to live by ourselves. We deserve our personal time.
