Budget Plan

• The total of my future expenses each year are about $41,000.  I know this is logical because my primary sources for information are zillow.com, my parents, Kaiser, AAA, and PG&E.
• According to http://money.usnews.com I can likely count on making $116,670 each year before taxes in my future job as a pharmacist.  My education/training to get that job will cost $ 187,4448 total for all years of training according to University of Southern California School of Pharmacy. I estimate that with the current average salary I will be able to pay off my student loans in 2 to 5 years.
• I want to save $2,000 for my rainy day fund each year, and $4,500 for retirement each year.  If I save $4,500 for retirement each year, by the time I am 65 years old I will have $171,000 plus interest.
• Comparing my future income and expenses makes me think that I need to be careful on what I spend my money on and prepare for the future just in case there is any financial emergency. Also when I plan to start a family of my own, my budget plan will have to alter and adapt to my family's needs.
