Basic Life Tips

Goodbudget should be more than enough to get you going.

The more complex you want to track the harder it'll be to find

Keeping all fixed expenses down is a fantastic first step to financial independence.

I rent the cheapest smallest apt I can find in my desired area and have gotten rid of all unnecessary possessions.

When I worked in an office, I would prep all my meals 3 days at a time to keep me from spending unnecessary money on food. You can make great and tasty meals for <$5 a meal and never be hungry again (because you can eat 2x during the work day and work through lunch to make $$$).

Buy the cheapest car you are comfortable driving. I am in sales so I need a nicer vehicle (bought a beautiful used Cadillac for cheap).

A $10k car is $225 a month or less depending on your down payment.

With electric, sharing WIFI, insurance and phone, I spend less than $1000 on fixed expenses. If I made $10/ hour, I would still have about $650/ month for food gas and future planning.

Living is not hard in America, though every poor person ever says it is. They are poor for a reason.

>buying a car with money you don't have

It's like you want to stay poor. Car loans are a great way to lose money. If you can't afford to pay it in full, don't buy it
