Making $1080 a week as a nanny in college and don’t know how to save.
I am a college student living in a pretty busy, wealthy city and am currently earning $35 an hour. My rent costs $855, Apple Music is $10, and my phone bill is $105. I owe $430 on my credit card and have paid $260 so far as I work toward paying off my credit card debt. Every week, I put $10 into Robinhood (I don’t really know what I'm doing there, but every adult tells me to invest). I have $15 in my checking account and $450 in my savings. I can't stop spending money on clothes because I love to dress up! I'm studying engineering and have been wanting a 3D printer for a while, but I’ve already spent so much on other things, honestly, so I think I might wait. How can I save and invest more in myself right now?
I also work on Sundays occasionally, earning an extra $200 if I don’t need much time to study.
