I'm a young adult just out of college and everybody in my life seems to think I'm crazy so double check my numbers for me! I thought I had this under control but now I'm scared!
Income: Trader Joe's, full time (40 hrs) at minimum wage ($16.32) for an average of $2611 per month
Expenses:
Rent: $1100 including utilities, wifi, and some shared groceries (in a live/work artist commune)
Food: $200 (limited eating out; I mainly eat batch cooked soups and chilis and so on. again some shared groceries from my coop fridge help)
Income tax: $534 (assuming a yearly income of $31334, according to some online calculator I found)
Savings: $260 (10% of income)
Climbing/gym membership: $87
Transportation pass: $98
Clothes/home supplies/mishaps/ect: $200
Going out: $130
Total: $2609
Not quite as much savings as I would like but as far as I can see it all seems to add up. I don't have any student debt or car expenses, and I'm on my parents health insurance. (and spotify + phone plan hehe)
Are my youth and inexperience causing me to miss any obvious factors that are going to sink me?
