Hey all!
So my situation hasn't really gone off the deep end yet, but it's definitely getting there. I need to plan how I'll survive being on my own financially moving forward before I actually move out or get kicked out.
In case you're wondering, my parents and I have a terrible relationship for the past few years, with them threatening to or kicking me out a few times over really nonsensical things, the biggest being how I like to hang out on the weekends and I have no balance in my life (??).
Anyway, here's how my finances look right now.
I work Part-Time 37.5 hours/bi weekly at $17 an hour. These hours vary depending on school schedules (I work in a school) so sometimes I'll work 25 hours in a cycle, sometimes I could work 50. I don't have the best savings habits, in fact I never have, so I know moving forward I need to be more disciplined. I'd love some resources or advice regarding discipline and savings!
My biggest concern is how I'm going to maintain myself. I go to school Full-Time and I have 2.5 years left, so I can't work a traditional 9-5. I also live in a very expensive city.
So I was hoping to get some advice regarding options I should consider moving forward! I've applied for affordable housing as well as public housing, and a co-op in my neighborhood, but I'd also like to be aware of emergency options if my parents would decide to kick me out permanently.
Any suggestions and advice would be really appreciated!
