bruh i’m only 12 and i’m watching videos like this, they fascinate me so much. I’ve always loved being alone and I like to imagine myself when i’m older and i have an apartment, idk why. I’m not normal

Haha you're completely normal but don't over stress about it though; It's good to plan ahead but you're super young to be worrying about rent yet lol. I dreamt about having my own apartment as well from a young age, and still do and I'm 21 😂

This is super helpful. As far as savings if you can: Apartment savings (at least 6 months rent), Emergency fund (at least $2500) and what I did I created a separate furniture savings and picked out my dream furniture, not saying I would get those pieces but at least I had an idea of how much the things I wanted would really cost.

You could if you need to move asap but it can make your taxes a little harder to file. But if you don’t mind calling up you 2 jobs for the w2s then you should be good. Make sure you work for 3 month with those 2 jobs before getting the apartment.

@@blazinjaye45 you either like the idea of renting or you don't. I prefer home ownership over renting for a lot of reasons, mainly the fact that I can build equity in my homes and rent them out to other people when I'm not staying in them. I won't sell my homes, but if for whatever reason I have to, I know I can use the money from the sale to put towards another property instead of walking away from a lease empty-handed. Also, I don't go clubbing lol. I've got better things to do with my life than get drunk on overpriced liquor and dance in close quarters. I'd rather own the club.
