'Twas a cutlass swipe or an ounce of lead
Or a yawing hole in a battered head
And the scuppers clogged with rotting red
And there they lay I damn me eyes
All lookouts clapped on Paradise
All souls bound just contrarywise, yo ho ho and a bottle of rum!
lol yeah I would be able...Where I live you get 20$ a day on welfare to cover everything you need...so 35 would be an improvment for us
He hated the girls I lived with and apparently one day took a piss in our fridge, I didnt find out about it until months later, and only because we were working together and confessed.
Drunk people are wierd, like the girl that turned up having puked on my doormat. I had to help her up the stairs, hold her over the toilet and then guide her to the bedroom while getting her water, trying to make sure she can make it to bed fine and isnt gonna drown in her own vomit while avoiding anything that would get me labelled as some kinda perv!I don't know why, people getting drunk at uni seems to be a glaring hole in my college experience. Never even once saw hangover vomit!
<----- morbid curiousity

easily.
36.75 us x 30 days = 1102.5 dollars
my situation is this.
Town house 2 bedroom apartment. 460.00
Electricity 150.00
Insurance for car 60.00 (2 people)
Internet 70.00 (you can watch your tv online)
this leaves you 362.00 left over for food and gas. which comes out roughly to 12.00 a day to eat on (more than enough)
remember this isnt suppose to be a long term life style. its made so you can live on it. the answer is yes you shouldnt suffer more than a few inconveniences. what your not going to be able to do is have a 70.00 cellphone a 250.00 car note and some of the other luxuries that are not essential. this money isnt suppose to give you a good living its suppose to let you survive till you find a way to improve your situation.
Well, let me tell you something
Ok, was living in the US, was 24, went to the cinema with girlfriend to watch... what was it... a movie about cave explorers who get trapped and everyone dies, cant recall name now.
To my surprised i was asked for an ID.
Obviously i didnt have one, so i had to enter with my gf, who is 21, as my legal guardian.
I never laughed so much in my life.
I look far younger than i am, a tad like a belf actually.... till i was 18 i would be mistaken for a girl, was hilarious expect on the times i was gropped.
The most hilarious memory I have was when i had long hair and was making out with a girlfriend outside, and this guy shouts "omg look at those hot lesbians making out"
I could like on that i belive.
Is that a work week or regular week?
If that is a regular week that is $1050 a month and a person can live off of that. Will it pretty? No, but a person can live off that amount of money.
Apt. $500
Utilies $200
Food $150
Gas $100
That leaves you with $50 that will mostly still go to bills or gas.
Now understand you are not going to be able to live in the best neighborhoods. You are not going to have things like a cellphone with a calling plan (cheap pre-paid for the basics). You are not going to cable tv or the internet either with that amount of money either. You are not going to be going out and doing a lot of extra driving for no reason as well. You food will mostly be can foods, ground beef, rice, dry beans, maybe if there is a sale chicken tighs and most things will be off brand unless they are on sale as well. Coupons are your friend, Wal-mart price match is your friend, and the meat counter in the mornings is your friend because they will mark down all the meat close to the sale by date in the early morning. Or if you want to be really simple cold cut sandwiches and condensed soup can help your food dollar go further as well.
I currently work part time (yay government budget cuts) and go to school and i live for around that much a month... and still able to save some money. So yes, people can live on that just fine.
In the UK the unemployment benefit is £10 per day but if you stay in a council house you'll get the rent payed for you and most of the council tax.
So if i was getting £16 is per day and had to pay the full amount in rent and council tax i would be fucked.
If however I was getting that and had nothing else to pay(i.e living with parents) then i could easily live off that per day, a reasonable food shopping will cost you about £40 per fortnight,Electricity about £60 a month, internet about £30 with plenty left over to spend on whatever
I live on about 700€ / 918$ per month right now.. So yeah, I guess I could.
(Not sure about the exchange rates n stuff right now, might be more or less when converted from SEK to $ & €. Get around 6000 sek every month.)
That's about 13.4k a year in the us. I have a friend who lives on 13.1k a year.
That's just hurtful
One day we shorties will unite and fight the evil oppression of heightism!!
Pfft me neither
Maybe. I think. It's hard to tell if I'd moved beyond tipsy, no point of reference >_>
LOL o.O
I know they probably had policies in place so they gotta check but still, that's hilarious XD
I do not get why we give welfare recipients anything to play with.
Get housing paid for. Get food paid for. Water and sewer is cheap. TV is not a necessity. So basically the only real living expense that they have to pay is power bill.
Assuming they are on the other programs to pay for their necessities, $900 a month is too much.
I do not give a shit if people on welfare have money for their wants. The only thing government money should go towards is bare necessities.
Sick of going into section 8 houses with 60" plasmas.
If you can't afford a baby, DO NOT HAVE ONE!!!!!!!!!!
I like sandwiches
