    Bro I am currently 16 years old and want to be in robotics and ai
    But I am worried that by the time I graduate college there willn't be need for engineers because of AGI or AI. Any tips?

    very real. also, thats a crazy side business you got, kinda inspired me - what tech stack are you using in most of those projects?

    • @rkumarv
      @rkumarv  Před 3 měsíci +2

      It is mainly Node Js and Tailwind CSS 👍 . Also some no code tools. You can always email me if you want a more in-depth explanation.

    doordash twice a day would be like $60 on $25 and the food expenses would be 2k a month if you account for all that and groceries

    I can't imagine the expenses in NYC. Damn. I'm broke and can't even afford my $1400 rent in NC. But I also have yet to start my career in IT.

      Keep going and it'll work out for sure!

    How is your net pay that much? Are you subtracting federal, state, and local taxes? Are you subtracting the cost of medical insurance? I make just about that much and my net pay is not 70% after 401k contributions

    • @rkumarv
      @rkumarv  Před 3 měsíci +1

      It could depend on how much you are contributing to 401k. I’m also in Nyc so my taxes are higher. Interesting that we have varying net pays.

    • @mb4404
      @mb4404 Před 3 měsíci +1

      @@rkumarv I contribute the maximum to my 401k, about $885 bi-weekly. After taxes, social security, etc., I net about 67-68%

    Nice! I think saving anywhere between 10-30% of your take home pay is good for saving. More is better but something is better than nothing.

    • @rkumarv
      @rkumarv  Před 3 měsíci +2

      of course! Would love to hit that 40% mark though

    saving 2000 or less is not good enough? bro I wish I can save that kind of money each month currently. even if I never go out and enjoy life and make as much as possible, I would barely crack $900 and I'm obviously not going to do that, so I'm not hitting those numbers.

    • @rkumarv
      @rkumarv  Před 2 měsíci +1

      you will be able to soon enough and even surpass that 🔥 !!

  • @anweshbhattacharya8017

    I appreciate the openness about your finances, but I think your video is highly misleading. For less than 5% of this video's runtime, at the very end, you mentioned you had a startup that allows you to generate $8-10k of savings. If you relied only on your SDE job for income, your attitude to your finances would be very different. Ideally, you should have mentioned this at the onset of the video.
