All I have enough money for is bills?

Question

I’m 26 and I live on my own I have a one bedroom condo. Lately all I have enough money for is bills and I feel down because I feel like i don’t have any fun. It’s just work to pay bills. I don’t have any unnecessary bills to cut out and I limit unnecessary spending as much as possible. Does anyone have any suggestions?

Answer

That’s actually pretty common at this point, inflation is at an all time high. Everything is more expensive then it should be. Only suggestion is get a side hustle. If you are good with social media, I used to do affiliate links to products I used, Makeup, supplements etc. it was weird putting myself out there at first but if you’re authentic about it 🤷‍♀️ I’d make an extra 600 a month just posting about products I was using. Or you can start job hunting and look for something that pays more, or ask for a raise.

Answer

Yeah, join the club. That’s what mostly all of us have money for unless they make a lot of money. Get a side hustle. Or a second job. Part time. It sucks working two jobs, been there. But if you want to be able to have fun or get extra things then that’s pretty much your options.

Answer

Do Shipt, Instacart, or DoorDash on the side if you want extra money.

Answer

That’s us too. And yesterday we got a letter that our daycare tuition is being increased 😭 I’m order to have extra money for stuff I have to work 15-20 hours of overtime a week

Answer

Have you considered a side hustle? It seems almost necessary now with inflation. Working somewhere that will benefit you as well would be a great start too. For instance, working part time at a gym to have a free membership instead of paying each month or working part time at your local grocery store to use your employee discount on groceries.
