Living for $3300 a month is pretty reasonable. You will make more than enough to save up with that budget in most jobs. I’m 24, I make ~400k a year, and I spend 50-60k, and save the rest. $2400 monthly rent. $20k on travel, dining & alcohol, and 10k on household expenses.

There would prob still be ways to cut back unless you just chose to live in a high apartment or house with a very high mortgage. Bc on yourself alone $3 seems like a lot. The norm for me at my age is like $1500 min if including bills and my own groceries, gas and insurance but like exceeding $2200
