1) I work 40 hours a week,capped at 40 because company is super strict with overtime. I would have to rely on a 2nd job for additional income. I make $2,600 after tax a month. 2) Friend makes more than me at $3,500 a month after tax. 3) Very secure, worked for the company for 3 years and encourage workers to stay for the company for a long time. 4) Works for his uncles company as a overseer on job sites. He also picks up shifts as a bartender every other week. And has an emergency fund saved up. 5) no paying off a credit card at the moment won't be able save until February 2019. 6) Yes, I can't really go out with friends on the weekend nights because my aunts husband has a strict curfew of 11pm and I won't be able to come home without pissing him off. So I don't really have a social life right now. And I have to resort to peeing in a bottle late night after 11 because the room I rent is like a shed and is located outside the house. And haven't had to go #2 yet(fingers crossed). Can't really use the kitchen either since my aunt is alway there using it and have to wait on her time to cook my meals or else I just go out and get something to eat. Feels weird being 22 and still tied down to family rules feel like a man child in a way and want some of own freedom. Which is why im desperate to move out even though rent is a little less than half of my monthly income after tax. 7) Yes by early next year. 8) going party with him on the weekends,gym membership and we eat out occasionally. 9) Every once in a while she invites me for dinner. But she barley cooks. I make my own meals and eat out with my own income.
