When I first moved out of my parents home, it was a struggle I went from being upper middle class with speak ding money to a minimum wage job. Sometimes I had to go without eating. There was this premade toast that was cheap. Often that was my meal. It was a sharp learning experience. I always paid my rent first, utilities second, a full tank of gas, then I usually had money for going out before buying food. My priorities weren’t the best and things were a lot less expensive back in the day. You’ll get the hang of it. I did have the experience of a high school class that taught us, how to write checks and which bills to pay first, how to make simple repairs.
