Anyway, you don't seem to be doing too badly. Eating out in restaurants is popular and is something most people enjoy. It's also a social opportunity with friends. I know it costs money but remember that tomorrow could be your last day on earth -- try to have a little fun along the way (just keep it reasonable) and not worry too much about saving every penny. Your expenses seem quite reasonable in light of your income.

Ethan...

Thanks for the comment, this day an age an undergraduate degree esp in Pol Sci and Econ does not really make me stand out. Hence I wanted to pursue a masters in finance.

My parents are certainly not at risk. They live overseas and have investments here in Canada which I help manage. I have offered multiple times as I felt guility, but it is their gift.

Must be nice to have an $800000 home bought for you.

Looks like you will be able to save a tonne on your own too. Create a financial and investment plan with stated objectives and take time to understand what types and what allocations to those investments you need to achieve your goals. Good luck.
