>live with parents, 25 years old, have degree
>spent so much on junk food and coffee in the past year
>only have £ 2400 in the bank
>work a part time warehouse job and get £ 500 per month (few hours)
>applying to white collar jobs
Srs question. Should I feel happy or sad? On the one hand, as soon as I stop eating junk food and wasting my money in the process then my savings can easily go up by > 10 % per month for a while (I have low expenses). And I have lots of free time and once I get a real job it will pay for all my extra spending (such as relocation, living on my own etc.).
But on the other hand I don't have much money.
What should I feel about my life? I know that I'm 25 but in the USA people finish law / grad school at the ages of 25 to 28, so should I be happy not to jump straight on to the wagecuck carousel?

Oh yeah, OP here, and I have zero student debt.
I guess being at or close to zero still puts me ahead of many people.

exactly. my friend is a rube and a financial jackass, so don't feel down. He got a factory job, and got fired for being slow. He said the firing happened because people were jealous of his "degree".

Don't waste your time comparing to others. At 25 I was still dicking around in college and now I'm making 6 figures. At 25 my brother was working a warehouse job at night now he's an RN travelling the country making 6 figures
