So how much does it cost to live in Hong Kong if you are single? I am talking about apartment cost + food+ going out.

How much to go out for one night?

How much to eat in cheap resturants?

How much do apartments cost?

apartments really vary on where you want to live and if you are going to share with someone else. can't really give you an idea if we don't know that. you should check out a website like asiaexpat.com or gohome.com.hk to get some idea of prices.

eating in cheap chinese restaurants, you can get a bowl of noodles for about $16 (+ or- depending on whats in them - meat, etc...)

going out in hk is very expensive. a bottle of beer can cost you $50 if it isn't happy hour!

so i guess it all depends on the kind of lifestyle you are going to lead as to how expensive you will find hk.

Then how much does it cost for a shared apartment? I am willing to share an apartment with someone.

all relative to where you are going to live and the size of the apartment. if you are in HK already check out HK magazine. if not maybe check out asiaexpat.com to look for flatshares.
