Tip #2 "start budgeting now" I have been thinking about this for a long time now because someday I will be living on my own. Please make a video with actual monthly expenses and how to budget it including paying the rent with other monthly expenses like groceries, paying debts, phone bill etc.
I plan on moving out by the end of the year (I'm 22 so its about time) and I'm definitely going to use some of these tips! I started a series on youtube about all of it and part 1 is coming out tomorrow morning :) x
Thank you so much Tess! This was incredibly helpful. I can’t wait to get started budgeting to give me a better idea of what I can afford out there and some of those hidden costs I completely forgot about 😊
Facebook Market place is great place to find cheap furniture or decorative pieces close to your area. Make sure is a good deal and the right conditions! Don’t blow your money buying unnecessary items, you can always buy one thing at a time 🤞🏻
I wish I had watched a video like this when I had moved out! Living in the UK there a a few hidden costs we have to factor in so having a safety blanket would have saved me so much stress!
Thank you so much!... Here we go with the story- I currently am to young to move out but my mom wants me gone as soon as I turn 16.. Whenever It gets closer to that I'm going to try and find a one bedroom house for rent since I live in a small town and If i moved at 16 I can't really leave the town for a few reasons.... Me and my girlfriend will be trying to get better jobs at 16...I currently have 3 jobs, I work at a breeding/Rescue place for all types of animals. I just started and I get paid about 50 dollars per sell but only for the animals I breed and work with so I breed the mice as feeders for snakes and such I just started so I dont have many mice or babies. But once i get that up and running better I get about 1.50 per feeder sold, People buy in bulk so they get around 20 and up which is good for me... My other 2 "Jobs" are self businesses the first one is a gift type deal got Christmas...since I only run that during Christmas i get about 10 dollars per gift sold. I also groom, Bath, and pet sit dogs and cats. I stopped for awhile... During the summer I do yard sells and Sell lemonade last year I made over a hundred dollars but with covid I cant do that anymore.. I sold some of my stuff and Got around 60.. Whenever I was in a better place my mother bought me a PS4, a XBOX 360, and a PC. I sold my laptop though... I'm thinking about selling the PS4 and I'm working on selling the xbox.. The PS4 is a year old and it only had been used a few times and I also have a lot of games that all together would get me 250 for the PS4 and 100 to 150 for the games.. Since most are brand new.. Sorry for typing a lot lol...
What do you think would be a good target budget number for total furnishings for a new place so I can start saving? Or how would I come up with that number?
It depends on your income and all of your other goals. First create a realistic budget for how much you have to spend on necessary items each month, then make sure you’re saving for other things like emergencies, short-term goals that you’ll have to spend money on (for me that’s weddings and holidays) but that can also be a deposit on your apartment or these new furnishings. Just make sure it all fits together in your budget, if it doesn’t, reduce your budget or extend your timeline until you can afford what you’re looking for. If you have to, get something secondhand from a family member/friend or a store while you save for the thing you really want! If you need help budging check out www.wanderwealthy.com/antibudget
