Saving money!

Hello! I'm currently an NSF, around 5 months in for now and have only a low ~2k in bank. Assuming I'm drawing $630 per month, how well should I allocate the ratio? I'm currently saving most of my allowance and only using like $125-$175 average per month.

I've zero knowledge on stocks, investments, etc. Are there any tips for real beginners like me? 🥲
