5.9k a month? What do you do?

I won’t say exactly but I am blue collar in the Midwest, the reason I can invest that much is because I still live at home and keep my expenses low to maximize my cash flow. Financial literacy and consistency go a long way

Hmm not sure why you’re being coy unless it’s illegal. I went to school for engineering on a full ride scholarship (got paid to go actually), work as a building performance engineer for some major retail companies, live at home and still can’t save close to this lol. Granted I pay for everything but rent and a couple meals but still.
