<prompt> Human: Last year had been rough with divorce and what not. My only expense atm is my child support at around 600 a mo., food gas back and forth to work. Im about to be hired on full time for 13hr. Luckily I have no debt, unfortunately I have no concept of how to save on my own. EXwife demanded to control finances How do I budget for a tiny house, and land to go with it? Any serious help appreciated.  <response>: In addition to what uwanderingdev said, create a budget - food, gas, maintenance on car, child support, savings, etc and stick to it. Assuming you will be working full time at 13 bucks an hour, means youll have around 2080 a month gross. Youd need to factor in taxes or healthcare or union dues assuming your job is part of a union.The best thing to do is to get the budget written up and create an emergency fund, then start saving for your house.
