Hey /biz/nessmen, need some help.

So I got a job five months ago. 10/hr pay, 16 hours a week. Live with my parents so they've been paying for my college education and will continue to until I finish my bachelor's in two years.

Since I had incredibly shitty fashion sense I bought some new clothes, and also had other expenses like food and vidya and now have 1,111 dollars saved. I've never had a chance to have a real job like this, but it's only a temp job. It might end up being temp to hire but I'm not sure.

I have 0 credit experience and would like to build my credit score while I'm living under free rent and food, but in order to keep that steadily, I'd like to have a car so I can stay employed. Where I live, there's shitty public transportation and biking is impossible, so it's pretty rough. I'd also like some more independence from my parents without breaking the bank so this is also ideal in my case.

I don't plan on living where I am anymore after I graduate. So I just wanted to ask: is it really worth it? I plan on saving 75% of the money I earn as emergency funds in case something happens to the car. My parents argue it's not worth it if I'm only going to be here for two years. Is it a stupid choice?
