Taking a job in Gurnee (Couple of Questions).
I'm a 22 year old male who has a 21 year old girlfriend. I'm preparing to take a job in Gurnee, Illinois that comes with a $50,000-$60,000 salary before taxes.
I currently have $10,000 in debt that I'd like to pay off within the next 6-8 months.
Would I be able to manage paying that debt off while still living comfortably in that area?
My current plan is to rent (apartment). I'd also be going to work via bus/bike. My monthly bills would obviously consist of electricity, cable, internet, and groceries.
Do you think this would be a reasonable goal to achieve?
