OK so what happened so far is, Im going to school, I got a new job that pays more and im living the dream. Now im setting new goals for the future
step 1: pay off IRS
step 2: save money to buy the following
-lap top
-car
-my own place
:D
when I become a graphic designer I actually think i would like to stay and live in seattle. weird i know but i have to live in the city, and i think seattle is one of the cleanest and beautiful cities.
So heres the plan
sorry about the following math plans
right now i make 9 per hour
i'll work around 25 hours a week
thats 100 hours a month
thats 900 dollars a month
minus 600 for the irs
and 130 for school payments
and fee for paying irs too late
so bassically i start off with zero dollars
hopefully i'll get rehired for a permanent position
thats means starting January its all about saving money
food=200 per month
clothes=100 per month
school =130 per month
leaving me with 500 dollars to save each month
multiply that by 12 = that means i'll save 6 grand in a year.
that'll leave 3,000 to save up for my own place
technically i could move out already that year which...hmmm idk.
but if i dont and just save money for 4 years
oh god no, im moving out.
to an apartment in seattle
i wont buy my own place unless i definately need to, which i wont, ever need it
i'll just find a really nice apartment
:D
Quintessa
201 Yesler Way Ste 100 Seattle, WA 98104
(866) 739-5850 ext. 7969
this is my dream apartment :D
yay
its 700- 850
but by then i might work full time and get a raise, so that would be awesome
cross your fingers jane :D
deposit is 300
maybe i'll get a room mate
that way it'll be cheaper :)
my future dream condo is
1420 Terry Ave #904
Seattle, WA 98101
Neighborhood: Downtown
Project: The Meridian
$300,000
hey you never know, i could be rich one day lol
