how much do you live off?


sorry about the number of threads recently!


me and OH want to move into a bigger place, around here the rent would be £750-875ish depending and we were wondering if it would be possible!

we both work full time, i make £900-£1000 a month and OH makes £1500 ish, would this be possible to live off including rent, bills, phones, internet and a car!
