You always have the option of staying at home for a year to save + have experience if you wanted to travel eventually:) Living at home sucks, but the money you save on rent/utilities can help with so much in terms of kick starting investing for retirement + your savings

What area do you live in? I have a sister in philly who as a new nurse is making over $40 an hour. Moving may drastically increase your pay, even more if willing to work nights. Something to think about as well.
