More like $300 here, and that includes electricity, heating, water, Internet, cable TV (though I don't have a TV, but it's there) and so forth :>
*BOOKS FLIGHT TO SWEDEN, LEAVES SHIT IN CALIFORNIA AND STARTS OVER*

ugh. i don't know how people can afford to live in california. my friend just had his "baby's momma" (his words) move in with him to his parent's house, and i was going to rag on him but then thought "well shit, he makes $9 an hour, you can't even get a shitty apartment on that kind of cash." well, maybe he could if he didn't just blow $45k on a car right before getting his girlfriend pregnant. haha! :Spin:

:lol: ... why don't you tuck me in sweety? :lol:

i know rents are cheap pretty much everywhere outside metropolitan areas of any country.

my friend, lived in Barcelona and was paying 300 Euros for a room ... now he moved further down the Spanish coast and has a 3 bedroom apartment for the same money.

its the downfall of living in metropolises ... but shit ... there is more crap to do :loco:
the girl I am seeing now is just moving to the upper East side of Manhattan in probably something similar size joint as Erik ... $1350 a month ... but that area is sually double that price normally ... so she actually got lucky ... plus she is walking distance from Central Park ... and general yuppiness
 
right, 3 years ago i lived with 3 other dudes. the one dude bought the house for probably $125k in a quiet and pretty okay area near the local university (uc riverside), we paid around $350 including utilities, rent, cable, whatever and that was a damn good deal. mind you, this was before the huge housing spike my area has seen. that house is probably worth triple what he paid for it and he could charge $600 per room if he wanted.

minimum wage hasn't gone up in 5 years, it's still at $6.75 / hour. you simply CANNOT FUNCTION on such piss wages, and a lot of people don't have the advantages of education, skill, or flat out brainpower for anything but fast food and retail jobs.

btw, i pay $900 a month for my apartment, which isn't considered too steep anymore. that includes water, everything else (trash, electricity, gas, etc.) is up to me. oh but not cable, i refuse to pay for television so i don't have that shit. :p

i hit post quick reply at least 8372580724985724985692478679 TIMNES NOW
 
yeah, i pay $900 also ... same setup as you ... but I want to move somewhere else ... and am looking at at least another $500 additional a month to make the move ...
 
i want to move far away from civilization but i need a companion first. like, one with boobs and stuff.
 
yeah but in the middle of nowhere that won't be a problem. :headbang:

besides, if/when i get married/havekids i plan on having the NADCAVE that nobody else may enter. it'll be full of scotch and porno, perhaps a leather couch.
 
yes, well in TX you can get a house for about 120K (or at least I think that is what J paid for his) ... here, you cannot even buy a 1 bedroom apartment for that.
 
for a shit house in a shit neighborhood my mortgage would be around $1500, if i was lucky. i have no choice but to rent right now, houses in the ghetto start near $300k.

i read an article a few days ago, over 20% of california home owners spend 50% of their income on mortgage alone. WTF!!! if this housing bubble bursts those people are so fucked, which is why i didn't get a house.
 
I hope it happens soon that way I can laugh at all the suckers who bought $25,000 houses for $700k. And then maybe I can still live in California for a few years.
 
i am personally sitting on my money ... as in the very near future ... the shit will hit the fan and that is when I am stepping in ... to buy out a nice home from a panicked homeowner ...

CNN Money and Forbes listed the area I live in the #2 are in the country where the shit will hit the fan the earliest ... there was some major speculation buying going on here in the last few years.

Nice house by the ocean will suit me just fine :kickass:
