Can someone tell me exactly how people do it? Lets use an E-3 as an example, less than 2 years of service, so thats $1534.20 a month.
Alright so your 18, an E-3 in the Navy (Yes, there are ways to gain E-1 to E-3 pretty fast if you do it before you leave for BT) You have to support you and your fiance living with you. Shes going to college, but her parents are paying for that so you dont have to worry about school costs. Now BAH will pay enough for a small starter home or a townhouse and all the utilities so no worry there. And BAS gives you $220 a month for food, but that obviously wont cover two people.
So you have 1-2 car payments, food, and anything else that you have to pay for with the $1534.20 a month. It would be great if someone would break that money down and make a VERY SIMPLE spending guide to what you would need to buy. (ie $300 car payment, $400 food, ect..)(Those are just random numbers)
This would be a HUGE help, thanks for your time.
