<prompt> Human: Im a full time student and work at a little record store three days a week averaging 19 hours a week. My paychecks are 150, so I come out with around 600 a month. These are the expenses I have to pay every month I live with two roommates so this is just my share-8 renters insurance-12 sewer bill- 20 gas bill- 20 water bill- 40 electric bill- 91 internetcable I front this in its entirety because I have the masterThis is roughly 190-200 a month depending on the month and other factors, obviously.Down to 400 a monthI spend around 15 on gas a week between work and school.Down to 340 a month.I try to go food shopping every week and not eat out, spend around 50 a week, but it could be more or less. Depends on how much I want to starve during the week.Down to 140 a month.I am in an organization at my school that I occasionally have to pay for things like shirts, fundraisers, other things, so lets say 40 a month.Down to 100 a month.Now this is where my problem is. How do I save using 100 a month? I know I need another job, but I take five classes in a not-so-easy major. I dont go out, so its not like Im spending this money on bars and alcohol. Occasionally, but hardly ever. Usually this money goes to extras like shampoo, toothpaste, lady things, or for when Im on campus and forgot my Brita bottle and need something to eat, or when I want to spoil myself and buy Skittles at Wawa.Ive read the posts on here for months, tried spread sheets, done the whole enchilada, but still am gasping for air at the end of each week. Pay day is the best day.I dont have a credit card so I cant dig myself in a hole.I can never keep more that 10 in my savings account, and at the end of the week I usually have a few dollars left in my checking account, which is ridiculous for being a sophomore in college. Am I budgeting correctly? Am I supposed to feel this financially unstable in college? I just feel like everyone else is having such a better time than me in school because they arent worried about money. I guess it helps when mommy and daddy help a fuck ton, but my parents only help me with what is necesscary see rent and tuition... which I go to where my dad teaches so next to nothing. I dont feel angry towards them at all, because they are teaching me to be financially independent, but I just dont want to be stressed about money this young. Especially since I have to go to grad school. SOS.edit: this is solely for the school year, I work two jobs in the summer that make enough, but I was an idiot last year first summer not living at home, blew money on stupid things and didnt save  <response>: You cant save because you have a poverty-level income.Dont panic about that. Just do what you can.
