Depends where you live and what your activities are. I would consider first covering for these basic expenses and then worry about the rest:\n\n1) Rent\n2) Food\n3) Transportation\n\nAfter you have covered for all these, you should be able to ball-park how much you have to make and start adding stuff like entertainment, beer, etc.

Ask the apartment complex owner for a copy-by law they have to give you one.  And you should have gotten one when you signed up for the apartment-if you didn't you are not responible for paying such a fee-if you didn't get one anyways

it depends on where your location is, how much the building is, if you're buying, renting, renovating.\n\nYou'll need everything if you're just starting brand new. Kegarators, coolers, Sound system, \n\nit would cost at least 100,000 probably just to start....

that really depends on your idea of comfortably.  What does comfortable mean to you?  How big of an apartment do you want, how close will you live to your workplace (ie. how much $ will go to public transportation, taxis), how often do you like to buy new clothes, how often do you like to go out socially? \n\nBased on my standard of living comfortably, I would say, for a single person with no dependants, you should be making at least $30,000/year.  Good Luck

Your best bet is to contact some local movers and ask them to come and do a survey of your possessions.  They can give you an estimate.  It's impossible to offer any kind of amount without knowing more about how much "stuff" you have packed into that 4 BR house.  We have moved 4 times in the past 8 years and it's amazing how much we have.

I like the answer above.  To add to it, maybe look for a roommate situation.  Sharing costs is definitely a great way to have a nice place, but pay less for it.

the return bus/plane fare just in case - you tell your self - heck I'm better off coming back.\n\nand money to last 2 weeks wherever you end up to cover gasoline costs, rentals and other miscellaneuous costs.\n\nnow I don't mean cash - use your credit card for that.\n\nwhen you are moving to a new place - try to buy the least amount of furniture and stuff until you are sure that's the place...ie rough it out for a while until you can save up a bit...

Ask advice from the college where the French young man will be studying. He is bound to make comparisons with what everyone else pays.\n\nThere are three elements to the charge. The rent of a room. The food consumed. The acting as a landlady/in loco parentis: cooking food, doing laundry and cleaning: the extra work he creates for her, I would think the charges respectively should be £60 a week, £30 a week, £30 a week as a minimum. \n\nThus £120 a week minimum and £150 a week would not be unreasonable.

You need to know cost per square foot.

You can deduct all expenses directly related to your rental property, even if it is not being rented.  It must be available for rent tho.  So if one moves out, any expenses you incur in getting it ready for the next one are deductible, which include cleaning, repairs, rental agency fees.  The mortgage interest, RE taxes and insurance too.  The appliances can be dedcutible at 100% (Sec 179) but will depend on your income.  Otherwise you will need to depreciate in over time.  The cost of the property can also be depreciated over 27.5 years.  Most tax computer programs can help you with these calculations.\nOne issue will be what you do with the property the other months that you are not renting it out.  If you are living there, then your rental property will have limitations.  Consult a tax accountant for more details.

Monster.com used to have an expense calculator for if you're relocating - I haven't used the site in a while, though.\n\nAs a lifelong NJ resident, I will tell you that it's ridiculously expensive to live here.  A six-figure salary is pretty much a necessity if you want to live "comfortably"\n\n_ADDENDUM 3/26/06_\nI just found a free Cost of Living Calculator that includes Northern NJ/NY and Southern NJ/Philly:\nhttp://www.newsengin.com/neFreeTools.nsf/CPIcalc?OpenView&Start=1&Count=30&Expand=1#1\n\nThere are others, but I don't know if they're free or how good they are.  I just typed "cost of living" calculator into the search engine and got a long list:\nhttp://www.google.com/search?client=safari&rls=en&q=%22cost+of+living%22+calculator&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8\n\nAnd NJ is NOT the "armpit of America" --  if it were, why would so many people want to live here that it costs so much?  In NJ you are two hours or less driving distance from two major cities, the beach, and the mountains.  There are still many beautiful outdoor areas (although the number is dwindling because everyone who moves here insists on having a new McMansion so they keep sprawling them over the beautiful countryside and woods I used to play in).  I guess maybe it's becoming the armpit of America -- so no one else needs to move here, OK?

My dear . . . it is normal . . . especially when you were in a situation where you were sharing expenses with someone else . . . to assuming responsibilities for your own action.\n\nYou are doing the correct thing . . . I wished you would have done that in the beginning . . . instead of moving in with a boyfriend.  I believe because of that . . . you were hooked into a tied circle . . . where you had no freedom.\n\nNow you will be free . . . to make your own choices in life.  Seize them . . . treasure them.\n\nMany people and couples live from paycheck to paycheck . . . it is normal and scary at times.  Check to see if you could find a roommate . . . to share the apartment with you.  Split the cost . . . of your living expenses.  That may give you a little breathing room . . . but make sure you get a written agreement with them to take care of certain responsibilities . . . in case you have to take legal action.\n\nYou can do it . . . I believe in you . . . I trust in you . . . it will be hard . . . but you are strong.
