Rent/ 540 a month.

Electric/80-180 a month depending what time of year. Summer kills me with A/C!

Water,gas,garbage is paid for

Food/400-600, depending on how much moola we have. There are 5 of us.

Cable/internet/phone=160 a month right now, going to cut back to about 130 though. Too many movie channels FTL!

Gas for just my car/80-120 dollars, depending how much I drive to my parents house. I live 5 minutes away from work FTW!

Gas in wifes car/ 250-300 as she works 1 hour away, so 2 hours a day, just in driving, then she parks it when she gets home and we take my car.

Misc items like CC bills-180

Money to just blow-150

Baby money-300 give or take.

2500 or so.

I only make like 1800 net and the wife a little more, but she gets killed on taxes or it would be a lot more. I still have to check into that.

Oh yeah, bizump! I never bring back old threads, but jsut had too. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

Shit, I forgot my car and insurance for both cars.

Car/310

Insurance/100 for two fully covered cars.

So move that 2500 or so up closer to 3grand a month.

This shit is depressing!
