I'm working and living in Japan. I still have 12k debt in student loans and 2k on a credit card. I don't know anything about how to save/invest here or if I should do something with money in the US. Does anyone have any experience with someone just starting out in budgeting/saving.
I have 62000yen extra every month.
Should I put a set amount into savings? Or stop at a limit ( What I read being around 100,000yen )
Should I avalanche or snowball my debt in the states?
Should I look into alternative long term savings other than the pension plan here?
It's my first time posting here. Edit: I'm learning things. I found a budgeting spreadsheet and used it, I also found a debt reduction calculator.
