Im 24, living in NJ. I don’t want to give away too much information, but I am a teacher. My salary is around 60K a year. I have been with my gf for almost 4 years and intend to marry her. I live at home with my parents. I have about 50K in savings, and 13K in my retirmenent with no student debt.
I have a phone bill, gym membership, health insurance, car insurance and misc. subscriptions that average out to about $250 a month. I drive a 2002 Toyota with almost 200K miles
Here are my aspirations for the coming years
– Buy a certified pre owned used car
– Move out of my parent’s and move in with my gf in west central NJ where its alittle cheaper
– Get married
– Get a dog
– Maybe kids
Which of these should I be prioritizing first? Also how much should I be putting into my retirment vs saving? this past year I was putting 1K a month into my 403b and sportically 500 into my Roth IRA
