Yup thats right ladys and gentlemen... I'm getting kicked out.
Why? because last year I devised a great plan for college which included 4 years at a private liberal arts college 7 hours away and law school Sadly, I am 32000 (+ or - some change) in debt. and will have to take out even more for this year to return to the same college. So I applied to two local colleges and said look mom dad I'm gonna go here instead and it will be soooooo much cheaper and I will actually have a prayer of going to law school (because realistically upon graduating I will have loan payments of 1300 dollars a month theres no way to make that kind of money & be a full time student unless I start doing illegal things) And they said if I transfer schools, I am throwing my life away and they wont be part of it. so get out. I have til my 20th birthday in december. But as we are already fighting about this. I feel sooner is better. I have a job, but because I am not going to my school next year... I lose my job because it was at a restaurant on campus. My friend is working on getting me hired at her McDonald's, as in I have an interview in 2 hours. And she and my cousin are going and talking to our other friends dad who is renting his old house for 900-1000 dollars a month. I think besides rent we only have to pay for electricity and because all three of us are students we need to get internet & my friend wants to bundle wifi phone & cable. And I'm sharing my friends car, since we work at the same place & will be attending the same school. We are gonna cut corners everywhere and use energy efficent bulbs to make our energy bill cheaper And we have all basic furniture & appliences except fridge washer and dryer but I think the house has a fridge and we can go to a laundry mat. My question is if split 3 ways, what is the least amount of money I can make. having loan payments of $175 Rent of between 300-340 & 1/3 of electricity & cable bill? Looking at this I am seeing about 650. but I dont know how much I realistically need because I would need for food contribution, I think 50 a month is good? we shop at Aldi's & the dollar store. is 700 enough to live on? Also every 3 months I have a prescription which cost about 230 dollars. And I just did the math to make 750 a month (50 dollars a month = gas) I have to work 26 hours minimum a week or 104 hours a month. I can do that and be a full time student at a community college right? I also want to try to save a small amount of one of my checks each month, in case something happens and I need emergency cash. Also I thought of a second plan, because my cousin makes a few thousand a month and my friend is a manager at mcdonalds, if I paid maybe 200-250 a month instead of the full third and they paid a little more but in exchange I cleaned the house all the time. that seems like a reasonable option right? And what all do I need to move out (only going across town so thankfully I wont have to hire a moving crew cuz my friends already said they would help) And any advice for living on your own/with friends would also be of help. I already know get everything in writing and set boundaries and such but other then that I am clueless. |
