<prompt> Human: Quick confession, Im terrible at spending money and just making decisions in general. Alot of the time i use the excuse that Im young and I cant take it with me so I just blow it on whatever. I have expensive glasses and shoes I dont need, I eat out everyday for 20-30 dollars a pop. Im not sure if its because Im empty inside and searching for materialistic items to satisfy that void or because I fear being unknown so I want people to stare at my expensive items and compliment or envy me. I have a problem, so I come to you guys desperate and needing advice on how to fix my life. As stated I live in the Midwest and make ok money, Im single with no kids and occasionally have to help my mom out with bills or a loan usually 100.My monthly bills are as follows. Rent:900Car note:283Insurance:310Cellphone:110Food:350Home Gaslights: 120Credit cardloan: 125Netflix music streaming: 50 I bring home about 1600 every two weeks so 3200 a month guve or take. The rest of that money is spent on miscellaneous bull crap like clothes shoes and the like. I cant live at home its an hour away from my job and traffic is abhorrent. This was the cheapest rent I could find in the area and my insurance is so high partly because of the area and my terrible credit score. My credit is also sub 600 because of mistakes I made when I was younger. I owe about 1k on a current car as well and a 700 dollar loan I took out to get my old car fixed another 2 years ago. Any tips from the gurus here? I really need help, if you need anymore information let me know. Thanks all.  <response>: Your expenses are 952 less than your take home.
