<prompt> Human: About 47 of my post-tax earnings is rent but I have 4 401K contribution, transportation metro card, and health-insurance already covered pre-tax. So I have 53 to put towards bills, groceries, more savings, and discretionary.I figure that I can probably save around 1000 a month 26 of my post-tax earnings if I am fairly frugal I do not eat out, and I cook all of my meals and have about 80-100 of discretionary a week after bills, groceries, and 200 monthly misc expense charge which I may not even use.I have only one student loan debt 3500 and already 10K in savings.Does this seem like a good budget or is it pretty shitty tight for someone that is a new graduate with a technical degree?I bad with money to the extent that I am super frugal so I can sometimes find it hard to spend money on myself even when I have some like sometimes I get mad at myself for buying a 1.62 iced coffee and try to figure out what I will not buy to make up for it, which is pretty annoying but it saves money. Basically my point is that I am not really good at judging whether a budget is good since I have a weird sense of hating to spend money.  <response>: As long as you stick to your budget which doesnt sound like a problem, you dont need to feel bad about spending money. Budgeting allows you to spend money on things you want, while setting realistic limits so that you dont go too far. If you set aside 80week for whatever spending, you shouldnt feel bad for using it -- you explicitly made room for it!If you want an iced coffee, dont sabotage the experience by fretting about using the money you already set aside.
