Poll of the Day > How much money do you spend a month on average?

(+) Yeah! (+)

And on what?

I still live with my parents and I'm currently working and earning 900€ after tax.

I usually spend on average around 300€ a month.

27€ - playing soccer twice a week (8 times a month)
36€ - gym membership
100€ - gas
100€ - having lunch 22 business days a month at the cafeteria
50€ - other random expenses like going out for a drink or dinner

I manage to save almost 600€ a month, which is nice. But I'm thinking about moving out my parents house soon and when I do and if I manage to keep the same lifestyle, I'll probably be able to save around 200€ a month.

$850 mortgage
$100-$200 gas/electric/sewer
$94 internet/cable
$80 phone
$400 food
$160 vape
$200 smoke
$100 gas
$100-$200 misc
$624 child support

Save about $1000-2000 on a good month
---

All of it!
---

$1050 rent
$250 food
$70 phone
$70 internet
$250 car insurance (I have two vehicles at the moment)
$100 gas
$50 power

So ~$1900 not including random purchases. Probably closer to about $2200 per month.

I budget $3000 a month to pay all bills and keep everyone fed. Anything over that is for recreation.

I'm getting played :/. They play the under 25 card too often and "Boston is an expensive city to drive in/too much crime

Can't beat them so I didn't really fight it. I even had to switch since my old carrier was charging $625 a month
---

That can't be right

Right now, about 50 for gas and the occasional fast food or the occasional video game, which could bump it to like 100.

Most of my bank statements are just gas though. I'm only 19 so I still live live with my dad so I don't have to worry about everything else quite yet.

It ain't dude but believe me I tried very hard to get a reasonable rate and this was the best I could get

Probably about 3500-4000 a month.

$801 rent
$88 car insurance
$51 internet
$64 gym
~$400 on food

So all of that is roughly one paycheck (the non-commission one). That usually leaves me the other paycheck to dick around with (and a good chunk to dump into savings).

$160 vape
$200 smoke

---

$550 rent
$100 utilities
$50 phone
$65 credit cards
$40 student loan repayment
$300 food

And then maybe about a hundred dollars on going out with friends, bars, etc

Back in high school I'd probably spend about $40 a week on "smoke". It's not really hard to imagine spending a little more when you have a lot more income
---

Between $2,000-2,500 USD
---

7 € Club membership for soccer
50 € Internet,Landline,cellphone
350-400 € on food
350 € for rent,electricity ,water,gas and stuff
150 € for media(books,games,music ect.)
120 € to save via building loan contract i.e.
50 € on extra insurences ,liability insurance,accidental insurence,additional pension
there is usually some extra stuff every few months ,like a party membership fee,and donations to charities.
The rest is to go out or gets distributed to media or is saved.

I make $4400 a month. My partner makes $3200 a month.

We spend:

$2500 on rent and utilities
$500 on car payments + insurance
$400 on food
$150 on phone(s)
$50 on internet

So that is....$3600 a month on living. Then we will spend probably around $500 each on going out with each other or friends and doing fun random things.

We typically spend my entire paycheck a month and then save hers

Okay I did forget to consider things that might be illicit to include in here, but...

...this?

Like one vape would probably run you, what, ~$60 USD? (More or less depending on quality).

But the juice stuff lasts a long time in my experience. I briefly had an e-cig in college and one tiny thing of drops lasted like a month.

What makes it so expensive / what are you spending so much on?
---

well, I earn about 750 euros a month.

160 rent
50-ish for the cost of living, electricity, water, internet and all that
100-150 food
100-150 on living expenses, like booze, metal gigs and more booze

and that leaves me with 250-300 which I save up for down payment of my own flat, which I hope to buy in about 2 years. Its size will depend on whether or not I remain a loner or I manage to trick some poor girl into marrying me
---

Uhhh

What

Only illicit things, cigarettes are nasty

My vape cost $150 when I bought it, it's not one of the shitty pen ones.

I go through about 60ml of premium juice a week plus the coil
---

I rent a room out of my dad's house and support my fiancee.

$300 rent
$100 internet/utilities
$67 gym memberships
$128 for her car insurance
$10 netflix
$4 pandora
$140 cellphone
$65 gas
$800 food
$40 tolls
$600 retirement

Rest, about $532 towards debt.

About $100 dollars on food, and that's it.
---

I dunno, probably $500 on important stuff, $100 on unimportant stuff..? I don't really pay attention overall, I just try to get good value for money as I spend it.
