I'm a college student working part-time (25+ hours). Last month I made $956. I don't have bills at the moment, and I have about a 1k in savings, and my boyfriend around $800. My parents are really toxic and I need to move out. They are on the verge of kicking me out due to trying to sell the house.
My boyfriend makes $1,660 after taxes working full-time, going to college part-time. His circumstances weren't as lucky as mine and he has taken on car loans, and has credit card debt, ect. His bills come out to $900 a month... not including a recently acquired student loan. We did some estimating and we'd have around $246 left a month after everything paid for. We looked into getting roommates. However, the people we are comfortable with sharing spaces with are on a year lease. I'm trans, and I don't necessarily feel comfortable sharing spaces with someone that doesn't know me and who might not feel comfortable with it. I don't know what to do at this point. If my parents give me my car and phone bills, I'd be screwed and I could not afford to move out. I have a cat that is 18, that I've had since I was 2, they recently dumped entire financial responsibility onto me once the vet and I refused to put her down, (she's fine, just old).
I'm trying to aim for Medical Lab Assistant, which I can do three classes and try for the certification after then if I am able to sign up for the program soon. I was aiming for MLT, but that is another two years that I can't bear to take here.
Here's what we estimated for rent wise;
Rent: 750
Utilities: 100
Internet: 70
Groceries: 250 (is that too much?)
I don't know what to do. Help?
