    I set aside $800 per paycheck to spend on whatever I want and feel like it’s not enough

    Edit: I’m talking about after rent, bills and savings, pure discretionary income

    really depends on city

    $800 seems fine on paper but i can see how you’re struggling with that

    is that $800 after ALL expenses including transportation and stuff?

    Yeah, but I live in New York so it’s $3 per train ride

    if u have $800 of disposable income you can use for whatever then i think you’re just spending recklessly lowkey

    no offense, but there’s ppl who live fairly comfortably with way less disposable income

    may just be a matter of how you spend it and how you’re spending your time

    In order to thrive here I need more money

    I think when I'm at like 80k it'll be fine. But ny is harder

    I dont really buy anything I want at this point. I spent two weeks waiting to buy a 25$ clipboard for work

    I think I have like 300 extra each week but it goes to savings or pre paying bills

    Shopping, going on 1-2 dates every week and clubbing. I don’t even buy food like that since I live with my parents

    I got two friends that basically do that too. One legit only eats out, does not cook.

    They don't club but will spend 50 bucks a week on pinball plus whatever they spend on booze everyday
