Default 350 shekels per month

Hello,

I am new around here...so let me introduce myself first.
I am tomer, 20 years old soldier from Israel.

My main problem is that I earn only 352.50 shekels per month (around 88 dollars). It is nothing. I can't work either because I come home pretty late.
I serve close to my home, coming home each evening, so I need the money.

I'm not sure what your question is. What are your monthly expenses? What does the military provide for you? I know that military service is mandatory in Israel. How much longer do you have to serve?

Boys serve for 3 years and girls do two. I have 2 years left.
I can drive in public transportation for free, and of course eating lunch is also free. But when I come home or go out on weekends, the money is very little.
