Sorry if y'all have better things to talk about, but I could

Oh boy. Here we go

>Taxes
If youre Uncle is legit and not paying you under the table taxes will take care of themselves. Dont take any deductions on your W-4 (employee tax form) and youll be fine.

This time next year your Uncle should give you a W-2 tax form. Take this, go to Turbotax online, plug in all in info, and youve just filed your taxes.

>Bills / Budgeting
Im assumimg you want the truck BEFORR you move out.

When you get your paycheck, youre priorities are ALWAYS in this order:
>Bills (rent / utilities / insurance)
>Neccesities (gas / food)
>Savings
>Investments (skip this until youre stable)
>Anything else.

Pay for bills ASAP. Dont put them off. Large bills you cant pay in one check, plan ahead for (example, rent is $500 / month and you get 4 paychecks / month, you NEED to be setting aside $125 / week and not touching it)

The less you spend on unneccessary things, the more you money you can save, the sooner you can get your truck.

>Buying a truck
If you can, save up and pay cash. Unless you have a trusted mechanic, buy from a dealership and not a private seller (joe shmo from Craigslist). Dont spend over $3000-$4000 on your first car.

If you HAVE to get a loan, DO NOT GO TO A "BUY HERE PAY HERE" DEALER. Their loan will fuck you in the ass. Get a loan from a Credit Union.

Take the paperwork they give you after buying the truck, and go to your local BMV to register it ASAP. Itll probably be a fee of ~$50-$200 but it varies a lot.

Get auto insurance on it also ASAP. Just go on a website (I use Progressive) and punch in its VIN number.

That should get you started. Be careful here on /biz, theres a lot of RPers on here. Crypto will not make you rich, Robinhood is not a career. Dont worry about investing until you have disposable capital
