<prompt> Human: As the title states, Im aged 32. Due to a ton of mistakes in my youth, I have basically nothing saved - 500 to my name. I make 60k a year, with guaranteed yearly raises and promotions. This salary is fairly new, before that I made 10 an hour for almost 9 years.Credit score as of right now: 570I want to be able to purchase a fairly decent sized house at least worth 300k within the next 5 years. 40 is weighing down on me.In your opinion, is purchasing such a house even a reasonable goal or should I focus solely on retirement? If you were in my situation what are some things that you would do in order to set yourself up for a respectable financial future?  <response>: I think if you only have 500 to your name, a house isnt your number 1 priority.You could read some of the guides in the sidebar about what to do in your early twenties.
