Whats your average monthly income?

And how does it compare with your average monthly bills and other expenditures?

How does your budget look? Entertainment, fast food, groceries, gas, rent, etc.?

$1000 a week + company car and fuel etc. rent is $250 food is $100 electricity is a non issue $12.50 covers internet, $15 mobile phone, $100 a week for a loan i have then the rest is all mine. so about $500 to play with but i save $250 every week.

I'm from aus though and this is considered pretty average here i believe. although i still consider myself to be pretty lucky

That's the most ridiculous price for rent I've ever seen in my life. I had a friend rent a single room in San Francisco, 6' x 8' (you could touch two walls standing up it was so tiny) for $400/mo. What are you living in if your rent is only $250/mo? Is it just really cheap to live there? Most people I've spoken to about Australia say it's ridiculously expensive.

Just to compare, I live in a tiny 2 br apartment, rent here is $1,350/mo. Infuckingcredible.

sorry thats all weekly figures.

and its my understanding its heaps more expensive here but we get paid more? is that right

so i get $4000 a month pay,

i pay $1000 a month rent. also thats just my share. my mrs also pay $600 so all up our rent is $1600 a month. its a nice place in a really good neighbourhood though.

money doesnt = happiness

i find my happiness when im staring into my grow room and everything is just right, or when im in my kayak floating down a river at sunrise fishing.
when i wake up in the middle of the night next to my partner and she has pushed me right over to the edge of the bed and taken all the blankets.... no wait i fucking hate that lol. i still love her though. and hopefully soon i will have children and i believe i will get loads of happiness from them.
