I live in California and have a fiance. She does work but every cent she earns goes back into her own business, she has not paid herself a dime yet in two years. So we live off of my income.
I know for a fact that we could live comfortably for 1000.00 a week. I do have a few contributing factors though. House is paid off, vehicles are paid off, no real credit card debt as balances are paid monthly.
So I would have about the following, not considering business related:
Insurances: 360.00 mo.
Utilities: 250.00 mo.
Cable: 125.00 mo.
Gasoline: 40.00 mo. (personal usages)
Property tax: 60.00 mo. (personal)
Costco membership: approx 10.00 mo.
Groceries/household items: 400.00 mo.
Credit monitoring: 15.00 mo.
Seems like 1260.00 per month for necessities. Rentals alone cover that and then some. Yet even ignoring that income, 1000.00 per week in adult after costs. Would leave me with 2740.00 left over for whatever. Striking out say 1000.00 a month (over doing it) for taxes, still would leave me with 1740.00 a month.
Of course I would need to make sure I did not get sick.
