The United States cost of living is dopeness.


My salary wage works out to me getting around £350 a week, which when converted works out to around $618 a week... so that is pretty sweet I think coz it works out to about $2,472 every 4 weeks. AWESOME.

Im on a "wage" salary with finland, im getting paid $100,000 a year for the first 3 years of my contract with an option for a fourth. I also have various bonuses tied in to the contract including performance and winning various cups. Such a dirty set up. My expenses are food. I have my house and car paid for by the team........ and im only 20

Yeah, but we're talking REAL jobs. You have an unfair advantage in the way that you get paid to play a sport. All sportspeople get paid a shit load to play their game professionally. It's no accomplishment that you are 20 and getting paid so much, it is just lucky that you were blessed with a talent. So good for you.


I could've been playing football (soccer) professionally now if I hadn't fucked up my knee when I was 15. I took a two-footed tackle right into the side of my knee and it totally fucked it up.

man, shit... fuck that. i can go to the grocery store and drop $100 like its NOTHIN. everything is expensive now, even food from the grocery store. and especially when you're cooking for just yourself, you can't really save money by cooking a big meal... unless you plan on eating leftovers for a week.

if 100$ in groceries doesn't last you more then 10 days then it's a problem

10 days of fast food would be even more then 100$

figure it out smarty pants

Fast food is unhealthy for your body and your wallet but...............

I just cant stop eating that shit lol..............

If you are any good at gambling, be careful but gamble any spare cash until you feel comfortable in the way you live........(if you win).
If you have half a brain and can do maths the rest is simple.(all it is-is a learning process which i believe most of this site can do easy)

Its not good for most but my life is easy, no stress and i have what i want when i want.

Which is why i dont appreciate gayboys like spul lol!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

he has done well for him self but i hate the prick lol....................

Ima hate'r muther fuckers!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I eat fast food on my breaks from work and cooked when I'm home. My girl lives 30 miles from me but my car gets that per gallon but gas is still a killer. I dont always get 40 a week sometimes its 32 plus taxes cut into the pay check. Then you gotta take into account people have needs such as fun and a girlfriend plus cars needs replacement parts from time to time (tires, cap and rotor, windshield wipers, for now) Plus I'm trying to save for a vacation in December. And I want to buy a new car (350Z) and ask my girl to marry me so I gotta buy a ring and save for a wedding. $9.08 don't cut it.

For now:
RENT $350
PHONE $80
INSURANCE $100
GAS $200(ish)
FOOD $200 (at least)
FUN EXPENSES $Who Knows

if your under 21, and dont care about your credit right now, I can get you a check for 4-7500k, you'd have to send me 1 or 2k for getting you the check. You'll owe a bank that X amount, have 8-10months til it goes into collections and you get calls weekly, eventually they stop calling, 6 years and your credit is restored - and as long as you got another checking account open or something, you wouldn't be fucked. hit me in a PM if you want for more details heh. Not saying it's smart..But, if your the type of person who can flip 1500 to 3 to 6, and so on. It may be for you. I got 4500, bought a car, got a repaint, engine swap, and new wheels, spent 1500 on all that, then sold it for 8500. paid off the debt within 9 months...spent another 2300 on another car off craigslist, spent another 1300 this time, bought another car, sold it for 7400...

Rolled that cash into a studio, have put out 3 full length's for people, get 50/hr or 300-600 a block, and also got a few side projects where the money is growing. (Not to mention I also dumped 1,000.00 on bodog betting, and won 3000.)



If your smart, with a little, you can make alot.
