Liam gave you superb advice! My only addition would be that it's important to use the 30% ratio for housing, which you would scale to any city you live in. You should only spend 30% of your income on rent/housing to leave you enough to spend on living and saving. This is the standard of affordability benchmark that was established by the Housing and Urban Development of our government. Some of the higher paying jobs are going to be in more expensive cities to live in, but perhaps you can start with roommates to get established if that's really where you want to be. Being an artist can be very rewarding, but it's not as fun if you're not saving for a rainy day fund and retirement.
