Should we have saved more? We both studied before. Therefore, I don't find this statement correct.
Rent is 700€ including all costs. There won't be a double burden since it's my father's apartment. We have very expensive cars. Together, 800€ leasing per month. These leases will expire soon, and we will limit ourselves to 450€ total. I work in the car. I only have 70€ fuel costs left. She has 120€. Each of us currently has 1000€ freely available, of which we save 500-700€, depending on costs. We don't treat ourselves to much.
Well... The statement is not necessarily wrong.
At 32 years old, studied before, and saved nothing? I am 28, also have a degree, and have already saved considerably more equity. After graduating from high school (probably your year is 88 or 89), it is possible to finish your studies by 25 and already have the first job. So it's not that far-fetched. Your girlfriend, at 27, could also already have 5 years of professional experience.
