I'm currently looking at moving out of my parents place later this year. the problem is that I'm not sure how much I should save up before doing so. I'm currently a University student working part time. I'm expecting to work full time through the summer while I live with my parents.
I'm looking at around $1000 (CAD) a month in rent for a Studio apartment where I live. Current plan is to have around $4000 total to pay rent from Sept-Dec. I'm also hoping to work part time during those months to handle other expenses as well. The way I see it in my head is that I wouldn't commit to a place until I've got that part time job. If it means moving out in October instead of September then so be it.
Not sure if it's worth mentioning, but my last semester at school would start this September. The idea is to go FT at whatever part time job I have or get another PT job after graduation to help pay expenses.
Is this a good idea? I would love some feedback.
