Dear Dave,
I’m currently studying full time and my parents were generous enough to pay a part of my school costs. They also allowed me to live at home during my studies. I work some nights and most weekends so I can go to high school debt-free, but I’m attempting to work out how you can move out by myself and proceed working while remaining a full-time student and attending work-related campus events. The cost of living in our area is high, so I’m having a tough time determining how you can make all of it work. Do you could have any advice?

Dear Will,
You sound like a really ambitious and mature young man. Congratulations on every part you’ve got been capable of achieve up to now. I’m pleased that you just are working in a future-oriented way at college. First of all, I feel that of the three considerations you mentioned – school, work, and value of living – it’s worthwhile to resolve which is your top priority. If I were you, school would come first.
In order to go to high school without having to borrow money, you could have to maintain working. But ending school on time while attending among the extracurriculars that may enable you to advance in your profession can enable you to avoid work. You need to work enough to pay for every part, but should you manage to complete school And Achieve your study and graduation goals while staying at home slightly longer? That feels like a winner to me. It’s a fairly good deal your parents are offering, but I also can understand your desire to travel alone.
I need you to be on your personal as soon as possible. But should you do this now, you’ll need extra bills and be forced to work much more. This will throw your entire school process out of balance. Guess what was your top priority on this scenario? Right, I’m moving out. When it is the tail that wags the dog, it has develop into the highest priority. If it interferes along with your work and due to this fact your academic training, then for my part you could have focused on the fallacious thing.
Your ultimate goal must be to complete school on time while attending as many related events as possible. In the meantime, keep working long enough to proceed doing all of this debt-free. If which means staying home slightly longer to tug it off, I might do it!
–Dave
