Re: Income/Housing required to get married
Not really,
Say a one bedroom apartment in brooklyn or queens 1400
electric (Im putting the max due to ac in the summer) 200
2 cell phones 150
cable/internet/phone 100
dishnetwork for pakistani shows 110
netflix 35
gas 100
food and household stuff like soap, laundry (including random davat expenses) 800
metrocard 125
leaves about 500-900 left for whatever personal expenses you have, so you can spend it on a nicer apartment or you can save it.
I think in the way society is set up is that 2 people must work. with one salary you pay all the living expenses, and the other salary you save for vacations, a house, … You can live on one salary, but its very hard.
