Avg monthly income = $3300 USD Avg monthly spend over \~12 months for my majority spend: \-Bills & Utilities: $1000 \-Groceries: $200 (Actually lower but I want wiggle room) \-Gas: $40 \-Eating out: $100 (Also actually lower but I want flexibility) \-Pets: $40 \-Laundry: $20 Savings goals: \-Roth IRA: $500 \-HYSA: $1000 (until I have a healthier emergency fund, then will invest less in HYSA and more in retirement) Edit: My single subscription (Hulu) and my car insurance got grouped with my bills and utilities on accident but they ARE accounted for. I basically try not to purchase anything else at all regularly and emergency/non-monthly/special purchases come out of my savings. This would leave me with $400 per month of un-budgeted dollars that I can spend as desired. Am I missing something? I live with a partner and we split most household expenses 50/50 so this is just my portion. Sorry this is a block of text instead of a photo of my spreadsheet, I couldn’t figure out how to add an image. Thanks!
