I'm a line cook. My restaurant is closed... didn't think it would go on like this. I'm getting by but I think it's time to change some of my habits.

I have a small not amazing apartment so I am definitely not overspending on living space.

But I kind of live day to day. If I've got a couple bucks, I buy food, or a couple beers. I'm 30 and I don't think I've ever had more than $2,000 at once.

I'm starting to think that's pretty sad and I'd like to change.

Not expecting a lot of fresh money coming in right now, so this might be a good opportunity to learn how to make a dollar go further so I can save on the same income once restaurants open up again.
