Becuase I pay a shit load and its kinda ridiculous :/

I basically pay about £570 ($920 USD) a month inlcuding council tax and bills for a three bedroom house with two other friends. Considering I don't earn that much at the moment, it's kind of annoying to see so much of my pay cheque go on rent.

The benefits are that I'm in a pretty awesome place, but it would be nice to have a bit more money to play with.

What do you guys pay?

$800 a month, split between 2 and about 150-200 utilities. so about $500-550 a month not including food and shit.

edit: its a 2 bedroom basement apartment.

I make about 500-650 a cheque, depending on the amount of hours I'm booked for and pay 120$ to my parents for room and board. I got it pretty good right now, but still manage to go through my cash like nothing. but me and my sister have been talking a lot recently about moving out to these town houses which are 700 a month plus utilities which we can afford. Also though after that we have to worry about food, asswhip, toothpaste etc.

I have a neat deal with my dad who owns the house me and my wife lives in. I pay around 650-700$ for the office(studio), and the house comes "for free". The reason we got that arrangement is that I pay directly via my company, so it's tax-free.

£260 a month with about £40 a month for bills. Next pay is my last. I'm not staying there right now because I thought I hated it but I know why and it wasn't much to do with the place. It's a decent enough house but my bedroom was about the size of the toilet. I was staying with a bunch of strangers.

$450 a month for rent, internet, and utilities. its a house split between 6 people. Only 4 of them pay rent though. The other 2 are the sons of the owner.

10 minute walk from my school.

Place is crappy looking but I don't really care.

when i had my own apt i was paying $800 for a 1 bedroom. it was in a nice location and they were like B+ apartments, but it was pretty expensive. The rest of the utilities was probably 300 or so a month.

I want my own place so badly (not shared with my sister) but I really need a new job. It's not that it's really boring or anything or doesn't pay much but say if I have a 4-12 shift, I could get off anywhere between 9-11 depending on how much shits done or how dead it is (I work at pizza hut). The only shifts I get that are solid hours are the closing shifts, where you got to stay till everything shuts down and then clean random crap after.

Lately though I've been looking over the schedual and when I have say a 4-10 shift, meaning I get off at about 7ish because wed have enough people, I'll just switch somebody because most people I work with are lazy as fuck. It's not a bad job though, I've made lots of friends of people my age and older dudes which is pretty cool. It's nice to talk to somebody with a brain on their head for a change..

i was paying $77 a week with two others, and before that $75 ($53.25 USD) a week with two others. i'm looking at moving into a bigger place so it's cheaper.

I live with my folks and don't pay anything. Of course I'm only home for two weeks at a time with month long periods inbetween, I still kind of want to move out though. I could def afford it but it would be kind of a waste of money seeing as how I'd never be in town. I'm prolly gonna wait a year or two and when I get my mate's license I'll only be working one month on and one month off, then I'll get a place.
