<prompt> Human: Hello Redditors, Like the title says, Im living with my father currently owing about 1600 in rent because I havent had the money to pay him off since my gf 20f moved in because she splits her bills with her parents. She didnt have a choice to move in with me because her old house got damaged and they had to find a new place.I currently work at Dominos as a delivery driver 7.25hr in store and 5.50hr on the road and Harris Teeter 3rd shift 8.50hr and I work close to 20 hours a week at both jobs 5p-9p and 12a-7a. My gf works as a kennel assistant full time 8.00hr and dominos part time insider 7.50hr Im not very good at budgeting but rent is 400 per month and I dont get how we are barely scraping by while working our asses off.Myour goal is to pay off rent and she wants to get an apartment ASAP. If we can barely get by as it is, I dont think we can afford a apartment because theyre all more than 500 a month. Is this feasible? Help? I can take all the advice I can get, please and thanks.Assistant: What else are you spending money on? If i calculated right, together the household should be around making 721 a week. assuming you do 12 hours a week in store in dominos and 8 hours a week on the road and your gf kennel job is 40 hours. Not including tips of course. of course auto insurance, phones, Internet, gas and food are some expensive that you cant live without out, but are you going to a restaurant every day, spending on a gym membership, and other luxuries that your barely using since you both are working 40 hours a week? Human: Im mostly on the road. We dont have gym memberships, we buy Ramen basically anytime we shop even though its starting to seem to make us sick, we dont go out much because were working all the time and neither of us are impulse buying or getting novelty things. Edit: punctuation and clarification of dominos Assistant: So, track your expenses. Figure out where every penny is going. Maybe you are losing a lot to taxes. Maybe you are spending money without realizing it. The first step is to learn where your money is. Then you can figure out how to spend it.I assume you and your girlfriend are both looking for better jobs. Always be on the job hunt.Human: This will probably make me sound dumb but Ive tried putting it in writing and budgeting to try and track our expenses but its confusing because it feels like were missing a large chunk of money. And Im trying to find better jobs but so far I cant find anything but these two.  <response>: If you feel like you are missing chunks of money you and your gf need to write down every single time you spend a cent for a few months in a notebook then add in any auto deposits out if your bank account. That way you wont be missing money.
