For a very long time I've never really took saving money seriosuly. About 4 months ago I decided to stop, make a saving account and put away everything I can and start focusing on my future. I've got 5k in saving, although I just started saving my money aggressively 4 months ago, and in the next few years I'd really like to buy a house, or I'd like to have some kind of goal or gameplay and I have no idea where to start. Right now I can easily put 1k a month in saving, sometime 2k on a very good month.
My salary is around 50~60k (I work in sales so my bonus fluctuates). If I were to buy a house, I'd expect to buy something in my area from around 120~150. I'd be buying a house in RI / MA. Is this reasonable? Any guidance on how long I should save / what I should have saved up would be very helpful. My only debt is my student loans, which are around $400 a month. I have very good credit (Over 700).
