<prompt> Human: Greetings,Im wondering what you everyone thinks about how much I should be spending toward rent. Right now I make about 900 every 2 weeks 250 for student loans and 100 for phone. The apartment pays for water garbage and sewer. Is 450 in rent too much money for me?Edit:The cost of living tax is like 3.4 percentI pay :100 - phone100 - gas300 - student loansEdit2:So I talked to the land Lord which is my brothers friend and I said I could afford 900 because it was listed at 1100. But he asked if we could meet in the middle. At 1000 it puts me at 385 saving after utilities, food, gascar, phone, student loans. Im thinking this might be putting me to thin or should is this a normal millennial struggle. keep in mind this location is a block away from a disc golf course and large park with public pool . Also around a lot of younger people near a couple colleges and a downtown area with great food and drink. Nice back years and all appliances. my concern is I dont want to be strapped for money and have to just live at my house all the time.  <response>: no. thats a very reasonable amount of rent to pay. just make sure your room mate is on the lease, and dont move in with some one you dont trust.
