<prompt> Human: The apt. Does not include heat and winter is coming. Its got a new forced air heating thing, i dont know much about it how much that will be monthly. No parking space. Its in a very desirable cityarea to live in.Assistant: This seems backwards, but anyway the general rule is 30 should be the max. Thats pretax, I think.So you should be bringing in 4K a month.But personally, I would want to be making more. I enjoy having my money at my disposal, rather than having to send it out to pay for shit.Human: My take home should be 1000 a week? Im sorry Im not very comfortable putting too much information like my income on the internet.. idk maybe thats dumb but its how I feelAssistant: Thousand a week at least.Human: That seems like a lot of money to me, what is the salary like of someone that takes home 1000 a week? They must be making a lot if they have medical dental 401k taxes all coming out and still breaking a grand a week no?Assistant: Yeah its probably around 70k a year. So entry level to 2-3 years engineerbusinessaccountingIT type jobs. Human: It seems crazy that people need to make 70k a year for 1200 dollars rent... How do people exist with the type of job market we have these days? I see adults working at sub shops, super makers, fast food... How do they swing it?  <response>: Commute from cheaper areas, dual income, roommates, secondary part time jobs
