$500-$1000 (I put at least $1000 a month in savings too). Two jobs is the way to go. Part time jobs covers most of the bills. Full time jobs covers the rest, $$ for savings, and enough to go do whatever. ---

No wife, no kids, no mortage (cheap rent), no car payment, no college loans and a good salary. No need to whip it out. But I am doing just fine. Edit: Also no drinking or drugs, so I am sure that helps the budget ---
