It takes 43 muscles to frown and 17 to smile, but it doesn't take any to just sit there with a dumb look on your face.

I have this feeling that he probably still lives with his parents.

There is no shame in living with your parents. However I dont know if I can say the same for his life in general.

Your feeling would be correct.
19- Is your collection insured?
Nope, but I live with my parents still. [But not in their basement...we don’t have a basement!]

Granted from this:
I know you'll be wondering when I started collecting stuff, so I'll go ahead and say that I began collecting DC Comics related stuff in 1992 and my journey into anime and manga began June 9, 1997 when Sailor Moon started airing on the cable channel USA. I got my driver's license in April of that year and started my first job in May. Since then, I've basically spent a portion of every paycheck I've ever made to buy anime-related stuff.

He's probably not that old, yet possibly earning quite a bit. In Florida at least, you can get a learner's license at 15 and a real one at 16. Which places him at ~26.

Which means his life is more exciting than mine.
