How to use "strike out on one's own"?
Is it ok if I say "Some people like to rely on their parents or relatives. Some people like to strike out on one's own."?

Question

Answer

The saying is "strike out on your own" or "set out on your own" and is used to refer to start to live or work by yourself. Also, instead of saying "some people" twice, you can replace the second "some people" with "others" (other people).

So, your sentence could be:
"Some people like to rely on their parents or relatives. Others like to strike out on their own."
