Putting up with pollution, crime etc and high living costs.

Let’s say your in a £75000 a year job - which is a good job but you work long hours in California for that and will probably have no life) spending hours commuting. I’d have to commit to long hours and we’ll if they don’t line you they can get rid. For doing a customer service job in California(minus all the ridiculous costs on fashion you lot are into) I’d get £60-80k a year but need an American degree for that. For my house worth £250k I can buy a house with a pool in America. They claim the average salary is £28000 a year maybe it is but you really have to work a lot and maybe you’ll get that if you a manger or tradesman. You might make £2000 a month with overtime but you get taxes on this. That would be for a customer service, call centre, admin, business support, supervisory role. Jobs are so hard to get because of the amount of applicants and I have 12 years experience and a degree! Whatever.īut they’ll claim it’s £2200 Your lucky if you get that. Your £100 hang bag and make up and clothes. If you have a mummy and daddy they’ll pay for your car. If you earn a bit more then you can get a car. I have bad credit and no savings so I couldn’t get a mortgage. £100 a month food if you don’t like eating a lot You have to work long hours and put up with a lot of rubbish!Ĭouncil tax (not including income tax and national ins contribution)įor a two bedroom is cheap normally it’s £700 for somewhere good.

Here unless you are from a rich family with good jobs life sucks. In 2008 the cost of a city centre apartment with hardly enough room to swing a cat - was about £625 rent for a 1 bedroom maybe 2. That’s Yorkshire for them that don’t know. I am not interested in sharing with some loud drunken hormonal idiots. I’m going to give you an example of my current circumstances and I want as many responses as possible to compare. I am wanting to know from someone that isn’t going to bull **** me what to expect for a monthly cost of living in Manhattan. Another place where things are stupidly costly on the money we get.
