about 2 weeks ago, I started my new engineering job right off college so here i am, a once broke college student about to get start getting paid $70k/year + $5k signing bonus. I guess my concern is that I don't know what to do with all that money and I don't wanna be irresponsible and spend it all.
the company provides health+vision+dental and a bunch of other benefits which I signed up for and they're gonna cost me about $160 every paycheck. The company offers a Pension as well but I don't get it till I've worked 5 years for the company and they also offer 401k but no match.
As far as bills go, I had to rent an apartment close to work so that's a $921/month + maybe $20 water bill (not really sure but It shouldn't be more) + $40 electricity. I leased a car as well for $238/month and I don't have any student debt or any other debt for that matter so that's good I guess.
So the question is what's the best way to handle my money. I'm 23 years old btw, and I live in Houston.
