So here’s some background info on me. I’m a full time college student and I have about two years left until I will graduate with a bachelors in marketing. I am very fortunate that I still live at home so my expenses are very minimal. I’m getting fed up with my job and I’m considering if I should stop working entirely for the next two years to focus on my grades.
I technically don’t NEED a job to survive but I like making money and saving as much as possible. I usually make around 1,600 a month and put around 70-80% of my paycheck in savings. I have about 25k in my personal savings account which is my emergency fund.
Tuition will cost me 7k out of pocket and my monthly expenses are ~$500. So I should still have around 5k left in my emergency fund when I graduate.
However, if I continue working I could save even more but it would be at the expense of my grades and I could take longer to graduate.
