Today I am going out to Stead with my friend Nicole to look at a 2 bedroom, 2 bath apartment in which we would live in together if we so choose. I currently pay 650.00 for my 1bd/1ba in South Reno (nice area) and together we would only pay 750.00, including ALL utilities, even expanded basic cable. Thus, the only extra monthly expenses I would have are:
cell phone
internet
car pymnt
rental ins
car ins
3 cc pymnts
braces
Thus, I will be saving about 300-350 dollars each month although my time commuting to/from work will increase.
If I live with a room mate for 6-8 months, I SHOULD have more than enough money to relocate to Portland for the fall semester of school of this year; FINALLY.
For the record, I tried, and was not able to save a ton of money on my car insurance by switching to Geico.
In other news, in a few weeks I start the last semester before I finally get my associates degree. Sweeeet.
