Re: What do you spend the most money on??

I spend most of my money on CC debt and then adding to my saving accounts such as:EF Auto, New home etc

Internet stuff

Traveling to and from work.

Ours is eating out too, DH loves to go out. Before we were married he ate out everyday. We are trying to cut back but right now that just means cheaper places. It's a start though. Soon we will cut back to twice a week I hope.

I spend mostly on my room rental, bills, food and business courses. I love going to courses and I'm hoping to make my returns later!

Since this is California the answer would have to be HOUSING and that's living in a somewhat cheaper area and commuting...

1. Mortgage/taxes
2. Out of pocket healthcare
3. Food

Probably on cars, we have 4. My husband is a car "nut"

here, my rent eats up 50% of my take home pay. luckily, I have my mother sharing half the rent or it would eat up ALL my pay. vancouver is almost as expensive as California now. the average 1brd apt is $800 a month in the 'Burbs. We pay $1400 for a 3 brd townhouse in the boonies.

#2- would be debt
#- car payment
#4- groceries
#5 -utilities and cell phone.

luckily I have child support to help out.....

Pretty equal between tuition and housing.

Luvnspnful,

I'm in Victoria - I feel your pain! I'm lucky I've been renting the same condo for 6 years now (the vacancy rate here is something ridiculous like 0.2%). When I moved in 6 years ago (as a single mother) I was paying $810 and it seemed like a real stretch for me on my income at the time. It is a 2 bedroom/2 bath condo. Now, 6 years later, not only am I lucky to have the place, but it's only $858/month (still alot in my opinion, but nowhere near the going rate of today). The housing market is insane right now, but it will come down too. It is already happening in the states, and we are not too far behind them.

1. taxes
2. rent
3. car (payment, insurance, gas, maintenance)
4. food

[shengmei]

50% Housing
25% tuition and fees
10% tithe

However much is left for food, cat supplies, insurance, and makeup palettes.

We don't make enough money to even be taxed. Ever since I lost my fellowship, I had to had student loans from the government, which makes me incredibly depressed.

Taxes, then housing, then insurance

taxes, then housing, then insurance, then gambling. Just kidding.
