Ah, the life of a Summer Analyst (SA) with dreams of globe-trotting! Based on the most helpful WSO content, here's a treasure trove of advice to help you stash away some serious cash for your adventures:
Pay Yourself First: Before you even start spending, set aside a portion of your income for savings. Given your impressive $9.2k monthly earnings, consider automatically transferring a set percentage into a savings account. The WSO community often suggests saving at least 25% of your net pay. This method ensures you're consistently building your travel fund without the temptation to spend first.
401k Contributions: If your employer offers a 401k plan, contributing to it can be a smart move. Not only does it serve as a savings tool, but it also has tax advantages. While this might not directly fund your travel, it's a wise long-term savings strategy.
Track Your Spending: Utilize apps or a simple Excel sheet to monitor where your money goes. This visibility allows you to identify areas where you can cut back. For instance, you might discover you're spending a lot on dining out when you could be saving a significant amount by cooking at home.
Live Modestly: New York, or any major financial hub, can be expensive. Consider ways to reduce your living expenses, such as finding a roommate or opting for a less expensive apartment. Every dollar you save on rent is a dollar you can add to your travel fund.
Limit Discretionary Spending: Be mindful of your spending on clothes, dining out, and entertainment. These areas can quickly drain your wallet. Set a budget for discretionary spending and stick to it.
Healthcare Expenses: If you have the option, use a Flexible Spending Account (FSA) or Health Savings Account (HSA) for your healthcare expenses. These accounts use pre-tax dollars, saving you money that can be redirected to your savings.
Bonus Strategy: If you receive any bonuses, resist the urge to splurge. Allocating a significant portion of your bonus to your savings can give your travel fund a substantial boost.
Remember, the key to saving as an SA is discipline. By implementing these strategies, you'll be well on your way to exploring new destinations. Safe travels and best of luck securing that return offer!

if you’re going to be in NYC, definitely would recommend staying at college dorms as it’s a pretty affordable option (was ~$1900 a month when I did it in ‘22). When going out, PRE GAME and don’t ball out on drinks. Definitely watch how much you spend eating out as well, easy to spend $500 in a weekend and not realize it.
Mostly though dude just have fun, i’m sure a lot of folks in my position wish they could be an SA again so enjoy it fr. good luck!
If you’re not spending most of it this summer you’re doing it wrong boyo
