Lets see, your 2.5 years out of college. Computer science major and right now you earn about 50K per year. That is a nice amount of money to take home each year.
For example, lets compair yourself to me right now. Not because it serves anything usefull just that I'm bored and you can see how i save money.
Firstly, I make 50K Australian per year. Now that means, after HEC (student loan here in Australia). I take home about $1400 per foright night. Now I live in a small apartment here in Sydney that cost about $155 per week, did i say it was small?
So, $155 per week. I spend about oh lets say $100 a week on food. I own a car too, so lets throw in some fuel money. For the hell of it too, lets throw in ADSL account that is about oh lets see $70 per month. so its about $18.50 per week.
Per Week: Rent: $155 Food: $100 Car : $50 ADSL: $17
So lets round it off, $400 per week would be my living cost. So, $800 per fort night. So I save about $600, or $300 per week.
Doesn't sound like much, its all about just watching where your money goes and saving.
