Is it possible for a out-of-state student to pay for this amount of rent with this much moneygt;? -

Im thinking heavily about moving to Seattle, Washington (or Bellevue, WA). The minimum wage there is $8.07; a student working 40 hours a week making min. wage would earn around $1300. Rent for a small apartment there is nearly $600 at the least. Is it feasible for me to think I can leave by myself (w/o a car) with just $700 left over each month?|::::|Depends on how smart you manage your money, figure in how much you eat, internet, gas bill, and other utilities. For me, my share of the gas bill is about 50 a month, but will be going up soon when its gets even colder. I work at a restaurant so one of my meals is free every day i work and it really helps save. Electricity is usually cheap, less than 10 bucks a month. Water and garbage end up being about 30-40 a month. and internet is like 40 bucks if your going on your own. And then a cell phone if you have one too. All in all I spend about an additional 100-200 a month on living expenses. You should be fine|::::|It depends on what you spend your money. Or, you could find a better paying job to increase your cash flow.
