I work a full time job and have been for 10 months. The job is 7 days a weeks for up to 6 weeks at a time until a break. I make salary and get paid weekly $800 (after tax: $693). This is the most I've ever had but get lost on what to do with it. I have been tracking every single expense for months and budgeting as best as I could. I'm just unsure if I should just keep saving and reach over 20K in just my savings account by the end of the year or do something now that will become beneficial for the future or help my money grow like invest. I pay $100 for my car insurance, $50 for cell service, $60 for WiFi and currently stay with parents rent free which I am super grateful for so I don't have too much bills. I have no debt at all and do not have a credit card as of yet. Any advice is seriously appreciated and would be helpful/considered.
To add, I do have my own car although pretty old it's a 2005 Altima Maxima with over 140K miles on it. I'm leaning towards driving it till it breaks down completely as I'm inspired by people like Warren Buffet. It'll help me save a lot more without ever worrying about payments for the car like the newer models. As much as I almost did lean into getting a new car I've learned plenty which gave me new perspectives.
