Hey y’all, just want to give some background before I start asking questions. (Just started this job) -I stock cars, order parts and answer phones at an Autoshop. I got really lucky by knowing the owner since I was younger and he gave me a really good offer. -I commute about 35 ish minutes so gas is my #1 killer right now. Any gas tips/ways to save would be appreciated -I currently live at home, bill free. I’ve always been a worker since I was 14 and my mom realized that and understands that so to help me save she just expects the normal chores and things that go without saying. I want to get my own phone line though just to help someway. -My boss is making me contribute to my 401K (in a good way) and matching my 3%. I have thought about a Roth IRA but kinda need a dumbed down explanation.
Okay, so questions... How should I go about saving if I’m looking to buy a used truck? I don’t have to worry about paying for labor just parts (perks of the job) so this helps me stretch my budget. On top of that, what are things I should be doing with this money I’m not spending? I already have a savings account and a 401K set up so I was wondering if there is anything I’m missing. Lastly, is there anything else you recommend me doing/things you wish you knew? I’m open to any and all input.
Thanks!
