<prompt> Human: EDIT  <response>: Depends where you are living and what your other expenses are. I live in NYC and its pretty common to spend 30 or more of your take-home, but your transportation expenses are 106month, tops unlimited subway pass.I spend 31 of my take-home on rent and still manage to save another 35 for retirementemergency because my only other fixed expense is electricity.If youre out in the boonies where youre spending 100week on gas and 100month on car insurance and 250month on a car payment then that obviously leaves less for your rentmortgage.
