|
|
Ok I am just trying to get a sense of what my monthly budget would look like.
Lets say I make 2.2 or 2.3 and will be in Seoul...
Cable - ?
Internet - ?
Iphone4 - ?
Transportation - ?
Eating on the cheap - ?
Gym membership - 40 - 60k
Going out on fri & sat (more social not a big drinker) - ?
I know everyone is diff and stuff just looking for the best rough estimate.
Thanks |

Cable+Internet = 30,000
Iphone = 80,000
Transportation = depends on how far your apt is from school. Could be zero, or 10,000
Eating = 400,000 (this is if you are making healthy food at home)
Gym Membership = 40,000 (will be a crappy gym, expect 80,000 - 100,000 for a nice gym)
Going out on Friday and Saturday = Figure you have a meal, two drinks and a cab back home both days = 300,000 - 400,000
You forgot a big one: Bills = 400,000 per month
Spending per month: 900,000 - 1,200,000. This is a pretty reasonable budget after your first month or two if you want to go out on the weekend and not live off of rice and ramen. In your first two months you will probably spend the majority of your paycheck getting things that you want to have at home. |
