If you're planning on moving out of home soon, i'd pack up the collection and move it somewhere safe until you get your own place. I'd put the collecting on hold for a while and as willowcrew said, keep the essentials and sell the leftovers. You can always pick up the more recent TF's in the near future.

If you really love your collection, keep it. Just put it aside for now and get a job to get you out of home and get you some future collecting money.

This is pretty much what im thinking.

Im not sure taking an aggressive stance will help. Try and keep cool and dont listen to his crap. Decisions will be made easier with a clear head. Besides that it will probably drive your old man nuts if you keep calm and just say im leaving, had enough- see ya later. Set your self a "battle" strategy. As long as you have a place to sleep and can afford food your going to live. It might be tough for awhile but it can only get better.

As far as work is concerned- there are some crap jobs out there but maybe you might have to take one if it means moving on. Im from a rural area and general farm jobs have been pretty easy to get over the years (although it is a bit tougher at the moment), they dont give money away but its kept me alive so far.

I dont know what you credentials are so im just making a suggestion. Centrelink help people out too with getting work- especially if you tell them your situation.

Anyway good luck TB!
