Default Re: Cost a month

If we are strictly talking expenses/personal stuff, and not including rent/utilities/tution etc...Then I spend roughly $600 per month.

$200 for weed
$200 for food (delivery, eating out, grocery shopping)
$125 on booze, aside from bottled water beer and liqour are the only other liquids I consume.
$75 on misc. social things, like going to movies, going bowling, dates, etc.

I have roomates and friends who get by with $150 a month. It's all your own personal discipline and if you are in control of your spending habits. For example, I have a few buddies who rarely go out to eat, never buy drinks at the bars (always just pre drink hard before hand), and always drink cheaper beer/liqour.

However, since most of us at least have some finacial padding from poker, I think the ammounts we spend monthly are significantly higher then most other college kids.

You can definatly get by and still live a very active and social lifestyle on under $300 per month @ school.
