Now that I've finally calmed down, I can continue. Now, this surgery (or at least hormones) won't start until I'm either 19 or 20, simply for the fact that I plan on working a minimum wage job 30 hours a week when I turn 16, and we all know how long that'll take.

In Texas, minimum wage is $9.35 as of 2018. If I work about 900 hours a month (30 hours a week no breaks) I'll earn $8,415 a month. Multiply that by 12, I get $100,980 a year. With that said, I have to factor in phone bills, apartment rent, water, ac/heat, and groceries. If I spend around $90 in groceries for one month, that'll leave me with $8,325. Then just apartment rent (I'll get to it later when I move out, but it's still good to consider it now) is around, maybe $900 a month, it'll leave me with $7,245 plus water, ac/heat and electricity, would be about $300 more, which'll give me $7,125. Then 2 lines with AT&T is $120 a month, will leave me with $7,005. Then multiply that by 12 and $84,060 will be my income for one year.

My plan for the week would be,
Monday-Thursday: 2 hours
Friday: 5 Hours
Saturday: 10 hours
Sunday: 7 hours

I just now realised, I have about 7,000 dollars to spend on what ever for a month... Nah, I'm going to put 3/4 of that money into savings every month and it'll give me $63,045 for one year in savings. Then I'll have 21,015 to buy furniture and what not.

Man... I'm only 14 (Almost 15) and I'm thinking about this stuff already...

Anyway, my main point is, I'm absolutely terrified. Like what if something goes wrong or, I don't have enough funds, or will my extended family hate me for the rest of my life? Eh... I'll cross that bridge when I get to it.
