The rent is $700 a month and there wasn't a rent deposit. It has it's own separate entrance, a small backyard, kitchen and bathroom. I spent my money on rent, utilities, laundry, food, bus fair, entertainment, cable, Internet and phone. The only money I didn't spend on necessities was $30 a month for entertainment and $89 for phone, cable, and Internet because I had to save $384 every month in order to save enough for school. Each month I spent $1455 and saved $45 for regular savings and $384 for school savings. It was difficult to manage my budget while having to save so much for next semester. I had to put my phone, cable and Internet together in a package in order to afford them. My rent made it harder to afford things because one bedrooms are more expensive than having a roommate. I will save enough money to go to school next semester.
