<prompt> Human: Hi guys, I posted yesterday about starting my new job... now can I afford a car payment AND rent? Ill be living at home for about a year but Im interested if I can save while paying for both. I make 65,000 a year and I believe my goal is to finance a car in which I have 2,000 to put down already. My take home for the year will probably be around 47,000 after taxes. EDIT: Was looking to spend about 300 max a month on a car, and rent between 800-1100.  <response>: How much is rent, how much is your car, and how much will your payment be? Do you have any other debt?
