I make $11.50 an hour -
That's about $460 a week -
Rent, in FL, for a 1 Bedroom is $700ish a month.
So obviously, I'd need a roommate or "sublent" a room -
So at $1,8000 a month
$1,800 - 500 (for rent, mind you, this is me renting a room - so when I move out soon it'll be higher...) $1,300 -100 (car insurance) $1,200 -200 (gas for the month) $1,000 -300 (food for the month) $700 -$50 (cell phone) $650.
I'm left with about $600 a month to play with....
Throw in a flat tire, or shopping for new clothes, or taking a girl out to dinner - and I'm one of those 1/4 Americans who live "paycheck to paycheck"
GOD BLESS THE USA!
Quoting: Diluted 5663641 LOL! Just wait til Obamacare hits you next year and you are left with about $150 a month to play with.
