Thanks for submitting this - it actually inspired me to compile numbers for my 2017. The results were scary. * $22k on student loans (good expense, I'm done with them now) * $29k on rent (studio in SF, moving in with roommate this month to cut expense in half) * $11k on restaurants (holy shit) * $4k on groceries (not bad, but coupled with restaurants is very bad) * $3k on alcohol (holy shit) * $5k on clothing (meh not the worst) * $17k on car payments, gas, insurance, etc (got rid of car so no more of this. pro tip - don't sign 3 year leases and then move to SF) * 2k on Uber/public transportation (uber pass ftw towards end of year) Going forward, 2018 will be a VERY good year in comparison since I'll be able to cut out MOST of these costs. But it's still disgusting how much money I wasted last year.
