Answer 2

I AM A TEEN SO ALL MY SAVINGS GOES INTO MY ACCOUNT.

Answer 3

This is a personal question and two people on Y/A can't have identical budgets. In order to have enough money in your opinion, just set up a budget. Determine how much you earn a month, deduct rent, all the bills you have to pay like rent, food, electricity, water, etc. If you don't have any money left over after deducting how much you spend then something is wrong. You have to cut back on some expenses that you don't need.

Answer 4

Since income is paid monthly I need  enough to pay that month's bills and an emergency amount of 500.  Everything else moves to savings
