I agree. Scoober is married, so I'm assuming that he was referencing either living by yourself, or living with only your spouse (and no roommates).
What he said. All I'm saying guys, is that the barracks are not all that bad...besides...it ends up being a little bit like a frat house anyway. It really can be fun.
Could you make a bit of money living in a house with three roommates? Sure. In this, as with all things military though...remember this...It will serve you better to make the best of what you are getting, than to fight for what you aren't. Make the best of it, and you will have more fun, be more successful and piss off many less people you shouldn't.
