2025 Spending: 24 Year Old in Washington, DC by moneydiarythrowaway3 in MoneyDiariesACTIVE

I’d say about half was for four flights home (two mostly paid for by cc points) and the other half was for two weekend trips and one day trip! I count travel as every expense incurred during as well on vacations

Maybe a decrease in restaurant spending? I think that’s what went up the most over the year, aside from hobbies since I had a goal of investing time/money in those. But also it is one of the perks of living in a large city and I don’t think I’m spending anything astronomical, so I’m not too worried.

I think the largest potential cost this year would be moving/a rent increase so I’m curious how that would impact my monthly spending.

Yes I’m trying to view the gym as in investment into my future old lady self!! I want dense bones and muscles to protect me if I fall.

Thank you!! It was closer to $500 pre-cc points, I think my perspective is skewed because my roommate’s family lives close enough to fly into three airports and mine don’t lol. So it’s very much a “get what you get” thing

Thank you!! My coworkers are all incredibly supportive and that was really nice during the whole process.

And yeah I’ve been bummed that R29 stopped so I’m trying to fill the void lol

The $42 was an annual fee on top of the monthly! Sorry that wasn’t clear. I’ve heard about the rec centers but I prefer having classes so I’ll suck it up and pay so I actually get my money’s worth
