Budget on a $50K Salary

At $50K, you're bringing home around $3,500-3,800/month after taxes. That's enough to live comfortably AND build real savings - if you're intentional about it.

💡 Key Tips

  • Aim for rent/mortgage under $1,250/month
  • Max out any employer 401k match (free money!)
  • Target $500-750/month in savings
  • Keep car payment under $300 or buy used
