<prompt> Human: Both me and my girlfriend have graduated college 2 months ago. Both have about 1000 debt, this debt is a loan we have each taken out to travel thailand for 2 weeks at the end of summer. We have no savings and want to know where to begin. We have both got good jobs coming out of college, I started my job yesterday. My salary 36,000 and hers is 31,000. We are both living seperately at the moment and are paying a total of 650Month in rent. How do we save enough for a deposit on an apartment? Would we continue to rent and invest our money? Any advice is really, really appreciated.  <response>: Dont borrow money for a vacation. If youre making good money, then you shouldnt need to borrow money anyhow. Do not buy an apartment unless youre married.
