Freedom

Which do you prefer having  your freedom or saving money? I had a conversation with my teacher last Sunday regarding this topic, She is a homebase teacher but she never lives in her home, I got curious and ask her why, she told me that she rents a room with her friend but it's just a short distance away from her home, She gets home every Sundays to be with her family. She has her own space and she thinks that having her freedom is worth the bills that she's paying. I totally understand her decision cause I can relate to her. When I was in my middle school I got the freedom that I've always wanted. I lived in a dormitory, I was able to do all I want, there were no limitation that my parents imposes, they had no idea on what I was doing. It was an eye-opener because I start to become independent and make my decisions on my own, I started to become mature and I'm happy about it. So which will you choose?
