Hey everyone. I would like to go back for a post-bacc in Spring of 2005 at Rutgers, but I need you guys to help me out. I'm not too sure if it's financially feasible right now. Perhaps I should put it off for another year and continue working where I am now. I will give you my financial stats and maybe you guys out there with a little life and money-managing experience can give me some much-needed and much-appreciated advice.
I am 22 years old, and as of now I make $50,000/yr in an accounting firm where I am just not happy. If I continue working there (and being miserable), right up until when my post-bacc starts and then quit the job, I will manage to save approximately $10,000. I also have $10,000 coming to me from my grandfather. That leaves me $20,000. The post-bacc runs about 6 grand, and I can probably live on 8 hundred a month of living expenses. There is also a possibility that I will get canned from this job on October 15th (long story), at which point I will have $5,000 saved up. Do you guys think I should just go and do my post-bacc now, or wait till I am a little more financially stable? Any advice from you guys would be greatly appreciated . . .
