40 hour weeks, 45 minutes to midtown one way. $20 pre tax pay, $15 post tax pay, roughly $2600 a month with even some shitty health benefits thrown in there.
Monthly expenses:
$1,000 on rent (splitting with girlfriend)
$300 on train tickets
$500 on food, phone, internet, entertainment
I try to save about $1,000 every month, which is not very good. I could never dream to support a family or a mortgage like this, but at least I'm not struggling to make rent or going into debt.
I live in an area that would be described as "tough", but statistically, I think we have one robbery every week and one murder every season. By NYC standards, that's very safe :)
