23 year old university senior living at home until I graduate. I work part time and don't have any debt. While my main focus is my studies, I don't want to be negligent about my finances. I have an investment account through acorns that I deposit $5 a week into as well as all my spare change. I have a Roth IRA that has nothing in it so far. And lastly a regular checkings and savings through my bank.
I know that a rule of thumb is 50/30/20 for splitting up your budget. 50% utilities and rent, 30% daily expenses, 20% savings. Since I don't have rent that frees up more for other uses. What I can't figure out is how much do I stick in my savings account in my bank, and how much do I put in my IRA? I'm not questioning my investments only because it's set up to run itself in the background so to speak.
Any advice or tips?
