Moving out as a New Grad

Hi everyone!

I would like to start off and say I’m just thinking for the future and trying to just get some thoughts started about this topic in my life so that I have some sort of plan later down the road.

Currently I am 1 semester away from graduating and getting my ADN and then taking my NCLEX after that. I prospect getting a job and working towards online RN-to-BSN school while working and I know in the area I live in, the nursing positions are allowing that. Right now I am still living at home with my family but it is an extremely toxic environment (mentally/emotionally abusive dad) and as I got further into school it got harder to study / work given the home situation I was in.

My plan as of now is to stay home for at least another year to save up and budget my take-home pay so that I can rent comfortably.

Does anyone have any advice on what else I should consider? or any other tweaks to the plan I should make?

Thank you so much!
