I’m asking this because I’m 23, recently paid off my car, which I should’ve never gotten by the way, and currently able to FINALLY save my money and I also need to live on my own because apparently my mom and her husband want to move to Texas but I doubt their ability (they’re very bad with money). I’ve learned what not to do from them. So if they’re moving states I need to live on my own but I’m scared I won’t survive.
Here’s the situation. I live with them and I pay next to nothing to live there so I’m able to basically save 90% of my checks. I currently make $14.79 an hour but I’m only getting 60 hours every two weeks instead of the usual 80 before. So far in my savings I have $1,700 and I get paid tomorrow so it’ll be over $2,000. I’m on my way to building emergency savings. All my expenses are $78 car insurance and $50 phone service and $36 gym membership.
That’s my financial situation so the real question is what can I do to up my pay? I’m very scared of big changes and in my fantasy world I believe I can just have an entry level job and survive. I live in Washington state so things are expensive. I just don’t know the options and don’t know where to go to get help.
