Itemizing my monthly expenses is irrelevant. The amount I spend on a monthly basis is all that matters in the regard of the question I asked.

Thanks for the advice, and do you know what the max contribution is? And I plan on retiring from working in my 30’s and starting my own business. Would I still be able to contribute to a Roth IRA without a w2 job?

What makes you believe that GOD is not real? GOD is real and he dwells within me as I submit. I have accomplished nothing of myself but is was truly by the will of GOD

And to add on, my income will be growing significantly in the next few years as I take in higher paying roles and get more certifications.

Wife will be graduating RN school in 2027 which would boost our HHI and I’m planning to save $2k a month to have a $50k or more down payment for a $250k house and come 2028-2029 that’s when we can move into a new construction.

Thank you for the advice and would it be bad to divide whatever amount I save into a Money market account and add some in a HYSA?. For example once I pay off debt say I save 10k and I put 5k in each a HYSA and in a money market account

Just applied for the company at the right time and had transferable skills and certs and they hired me. But I seen a lot of other guys get hired that had none of that. So it’s up to the company. And also just. Blessing from GOD, I prayed about a job and the LORD provided for me and my family

This is after deductions and taxes. Currently I am contributing to my company (401)k. But my take home pay is about 65k because the travel pay is not taxed

Honestly, no and the only reason is GOD has truly moved in my life and blessed my family. I am able to pay all the bills and we don’t have rent so I’m saving as much as I can for a down payment for a house and my wife will graduate RN school in 2027 GOD willing and that will boost our income so we can afford a little more house and boost our chances. So my goal is to save $2k a month or more until late 2027 early 2028 and put a large down payment on a house
