I feel confused each time I try to allocate spare money and not really sure where to go?

Read/listen to the book, a Random Walk Down Wall Street.

I Will Teach You to be Rich by Ramit Sadie isn't a bad book either to get you started. I know it sounds like a scammy book but it's a really straight forward book on asset allocation and how much you should have saved where to prevent financial strain.
