Just graduated from college need financial advice?

Sorry in advance this is being done on my iPhone. Ok, I just graduated from college. I live in Florida. I got a job that pays $27 an hour on week days and $28.25 an hour on weekends. I used a web site to calculate my paychecks on $27 an hour. I work 36 hours a week and get paid biweekly. According to that web site I'll gross about $1, 900 and I'll bring home about 1, 500.So that's about about 3, 000 per month. I would like to know how much money I can spend on the following; rent, electric, water, savings, gas money, food, luxeries, and car payment. Don't have a car payment yet but I need a new car. My college car is about to break down. My bills now are as follows; car insurance-130, phone bill-110. I don't have any other bills. If I missed anything please add that as well.

Got to be kidding me dude… You graduated from college, got a great job. And can't do simple math to figure out your bills?

You want real world answer or
answer that will keep u in debt slavery?
Real world answer.
Rent small safe cheap costing no more
than one weeks take home pay.
water is provided in 95% of apartments.
Electrics can cost as low as 50$ month
unless you like to hang meat to freeze.
Food unless you eat out LOTS you can get
away with 75$ week.
if you got no school loans - congratulations.
phone bill and internet can b 110$.

now for the elephant that will drown u in
debt slavery. A "New Car" children want,
adults need.

save some cash up 3-5000$ buy a good
used car under 175K miles.pay a car
inspector 200$ to check it out.use 1K
taxes, registration, insurance (full coverage),
inspections, new tires.

Drive this 3-5yrs (60K) sell it and with extra
10K u saved up buy a "new" used car again.

doing this will save u 100, 000$ in life.

As for SAVINGs save up 6 months full pay
for your next laid off, firing, buy out, closing
offshoring, accidents so you can't work.

put 10% of earnings in 401k or Roth 401
will save u on yearly taxes and give you a
income secure life in decades to come.

visit dave ramsey.com so you can learn from
others hard costly life mistakes so u
do not pay for them.

you will still have plenty to party on.

If you think you can't handle it yourself I would hire a financial planner to help you set up a budget. One of the first rules is to pay yourself first by making a deposit to a savings account before you do anything else

  • IPhone newbie. I need advice? I have always had an Android. I dropped it and broke the screen. I was able to upgrade to an iPhone for free. My question is this: is there any app that has free songs on it already? Not looking for an app that takes me to a website. Androids have tons of apps that have tons of songs in their libraries. So far, I can't find an iPhone app that does.
  • Financial Times: possible to share subscription? I installed the FT app on my iPhone and considering subscribing to it. As I don't yet know what's involved in the process of subscribing and also the relatively significant cost of £4/£6 per week I'd like to see if I could share the cost and access to the app/website with one or two others I'd find online. Good idea/possible?
  • Financial advice please? I'm stuck: Please? Okay here's the story, I want an iPhone 5 but I don't have enough money. However I have an iPhone 4S and a Blackberry 9700. I'm considering to sell both and buy an iPhone 5 but it doesn't seems enough. I also have Beats (Dr. Dre) Solo special edition, I can also sell that but when I sell those I will only have an iPhone 5. Also I have 70$ cash. What should I do, should I just continue to use my stuff or get one. I know it is being greedy but I just want an advice.
  • Do I need a tablet for college? I saw on the internet that it would be helpful, but I don't know if it will actually do me any good. I have a iphone 5s and I have a touch screen computer from asus.
