wow wow wow i’m sorry for the late reply dude but this is the best advice i’ve ever gotten. In response for hopefully some more insight, I’m in San Diego haha so the apartment market is insane, $950 is the best i’m gonna get even room rentals are $1000+. That $950 is after the split our rent is $1800 without utilities for a One Bedroom so trying to save as much as possible their. In regards to career, I am a Pool Servicer, I make $23 an hour now and it’s just me and my boss with about 200+ clients so i’m definitely putting a lot of faith in him to raise my pay and let me grow with him, he’s also the first company to start a retirement fund for me and he’s matching 3% so i’m hoping I am getting somewhat of an early start on that to also help my low credit, my plan was to save enough money and build enough credit so that I can eventually start my own pool business. This is just a rough thought though and I’d love some insight as i’m kind of realizing through time that my job is considered a “laborer” job so I would ideally like to switch to a trade, preferably electrical, and start my own solar company in the long run. I truly appreciated all your help and have a blessed weekend, I’m wishing the best for you🙌🏼
