But seriously I have been there. Don't buy a new car 120k miles is nothing these days. Auto deduct a set amount into a savings account that you can't easily raid. Contribute your 401k up to the max match. Open a Roth and put as much as you can in there. Should be easy to save 1k+ a month minimum between savings account and roth if you stick to a budget and still have plenty of cash to have fun, eat well, and do some traveling.

Thank you as well, yea I'm not ready to settle down just yet and I honestly don't know if I'll ever want a kid. I believe once I'm settled in w/ the job, I am def gonna open up a roth, how much would you recommend to put in there?
