How much is everyone able to put in savings from each check? I've been trying to save between $250 and $500 but it's getting more and more difficult and sometimes I struggle to have a spare $150 to save

Hey mate. Do yourself the favor and don’t aim to compare these things. Everyone has different lifestyles and saves in vastly different amounts… comparing here won’t bring you joy. Analyze your lifestyle and determine if saving more is worth the currently imposed financial limitations

👆🏼great advice right there

Where are you spending your pay checks on? Set a budget and be disciplined. Live within your means.

Personally, I have made it work when I was making less than $50k a year living in NY, granted that was many years ago.

I try to put away $400 every month in my savings/retirement account but lately I have been thinking I should really be putting more away
