For single people living in the U.S., earning enough money to make ends meet looks different for each person. But location can play a major role, since the cost of housing, food, insurance and other necessities varies from place to place. --- "I will die of cancer before I let another dude finger my a******e." - ZeroX91 ...

It doesn't really work in states with large variations for cost of living. --- Can you say David Hasselhoff? ... Copied to Clipboard!

I think the premise of the calculator is for a single person, which I take to mean no roommate or significant other. It doesn't really work in states with large variations for cost of living. Then I can tell you its unrealistic for my state. Maybe out in the boonies areas, but any populated area and you won't be finding anywhere to live by yourself making that little. Not to mention the fact that your income is generally checked when renting, so who is going to want to rent to someone using 70% of their income on rent? Eventually they are going to start missing payments. --- Now Playing: "The Hunt for the Two Missing Nintendo 64 Games" An expansion came out, but I'm still a third of the way through! ...
