<prompt> Human: My boyfriend just got a job offer that he is planning to accept. Its a job in manhattan paying around 43k a year. I want to give him some advice on how to manage his money since its his first real job just graduated last spring. He is also looking for an apartment outside the city. He has zero debt right now, but also zero savings. Any money advice? Or anything for first time renters?Edit: For apartments I was thinking a studio in queens or brooklyn or something for between 900-1k a month. Is this totally unrealistic?  <response>: A commenter in Manhattan would be most helpful but in general hes going to need to save up a few grand. Hes going to need to pay moving expenses which vary depending on how much hes bringing and how itll be transported. Other immediate costs are involved with establishing a new household, all the little stuff you take for granted like plates, trash cans, a vacuum cleaner, furniture, sleeping paraphernalia. 43k does not go very far in expensive cities so roommates are likely in order.
