Occupation: Library assistant
Industry: Local government/library services
Age: 32
Location: Central Florida
Salary: $41,000
Assets: Checking: $306; savings: $671.69; HYSA: $3,010.66; FRS: about $25,000. I’m married but we keep our finances separate. My husband, C., pays the rent, utilities, and his debt (car payment and student loans). I pay the remaining bills, my own debt, all daily spending, and savings. He contributes to savings when no unexpected big items like vet or medical bills occur. This works for us a lot better than trying to split everything down the middle. We should probably figure out how to combine finances at some point but just haven’t gotten around to it.
Debt: Car: about $10,000; student loans: $4,000.
Paycheck amount (biweekly): $1,208
Pronouns: She/her
