    your alone and spending 23k monthly? why? your paying house mortage or apartment? do you gas a car daily to work? cause food would only be around 3k if im alone and electricity would only be 2k, water would only be 300php and gas to work if i dont like the hassle of commuting to 4k, thats 9.3k a month for me. and if i rent ill just take a 4k apartment that would only be 13.3k and if i pay house mortage ill only take those 2 BR row house amounting to 8k the most that would be 16.3k only just add 1k for internet and 1k for cigarretes thats 18.3k and thats already a comfortable way of living

    I do not want to be sarcastic, but it's hard to believe 23k for a monthly expense even if you're living alone. 10k rent cost for 1 bedroom apartment with less noise is indeed one-of-a-kind catch. However, your electricity and water bill doesn't add up to be 2k only as you have AC and other electric appliances not unless you manually turn off the main power supply whenever you're not home. Secondly 7k budget for food and groceries for a month will only be reasonable if you live on having bread, eggs, can goods, noodles, canton and junk foods no rice on a day-to-day basis, which I believe is quite impossible. No hate here just being honest with my opinion and the reality as its 2024.

    • @lifeofrhae
      @lifeofrhae  2 месяца назад +91

      Got your point. :) I'm happy to explain.
      10K is a steal! My landlady is very generous and kind, even gave ACs to some of her staff during summer.
      For electricity and water, actually, my recent reading only adds up to 1.2K. My water is usually 350 since I do my laundry here. My electricity goes from 800 to 1.1K. Take note that I have an inverter AC and I'm only using it at night time since I'm working in the office. My ref is old and saves a lot of energy, that's why I never bought a new one.
      Also, there's a difference in commercial and residential buildings. Some condos have higher electricity price compared to residential. It also depends on the location. Mine is in residential area.
      7K for food is enough and I eat healthy. You know how? I live near a wet market where veggies and fruits are way cheaper. I don't buy them from groceries. I cook and I don't buy deliveries that much. For lunch, our company has a canteen that serves great food at cheaper prices. Fun fact, I only ate 2 instant noodles last month when I was so lazy going out. Lol.
      Thanks for being honest. If one is wise, madiskarte, and hardworking, he/she can find ways (edit: though it still depends on what's available to you). ☺️ Hope this clarified some things.
