Product placement

Fortnite (video game) - appears on screen as a topic of discussion. Removing it would not change what happens in the video. Stan Store (link aggregator) - appears as the creator's bio link. It acts as a destination for the creator's other links. Removing it would change where viewers are directed. It is not the primary product being promoted.

got So my I just got fucking paid So come and budget my paycheck with me as a 21 year old guy living in Australia. This Fortnite I brought in $3,400 after tax. I work two jobs, one running my own business, so it kind of changes every single Fortnite. This is what I budget for. I budget $100 for my groceries, $100 for petrol over the two weeks, $40 for my gym membership, $15 for my phone bill. $300 on all of my business expenses and stuff like that. I'm lucky enough to live at home, pretty low expenses, as you can see, I don't pay any rent. I'm super lucky. So this the rest of this is invested. I put $200 towards my superannuation payments, which isn't much, but I like to contribute just a little bit. Then the $2,645 is invested. So there you go, that's how I budget my paycheck as a 21 year old. Follow for more 🥺
