This 26-year-old works 3 jobs and earns $360,000 a year in Illinois—here's everything he spends in a week (via CNBCMakeIt)
Alex Sanchez is a busy man. The 26-year-old earns $360,000 a year from his full-time job as an overhead lineman for an electrical utilities company as well as two side businesses doing lawn care and managing half a dozen rental properties. On top of all that, he has a 5-month-old daughter at home.
He makes a point to bring protein bars from home to eat for breakfast in an effort to avoid eating out three meals a day and occasionally skips meals if he's too busy with work. On average, Sanchez says he spends around $100 a week on meals out. But on the bright side, Sanchez says that so much of his time on work sites limits his splurging to just food because "there's only so much money you can spend when you're not outside with your friends having fun."Beyond food, many of his expenses go toward tools and materials that he uses to work on his properties. "Right now, I'm working on this house that I'm doing a whole lot of repairs on, like plumbing," he explains.
This week, he also took a surprise road trip to Miami with his girlfriend and daughter, which had been canceled several weeks ago but was revived at the last minute. The hotel stay cost him $876. "Miami is expensive," Sanchez says. "That kind of hurt because it wasn't a 5-star hotel." But, he says, it was worth it to be with his daughter for her first time traveling.
