How Much Do You Spend Monthly Overseas? by Bvlgari(op):
As we all know, living overseas is very enjoyable but u must pay for those things unfailingly every month

This brings me to my question...

How much do u spend on your bills monthly overseas?

Pls note that it may vary from country to country

As for me, this is my breakdown spendings every month

1: house rent $ 400
2: grocery shopping $ 150
3: electricity $ 25
4: water $ 10
5: internet $50
6: gas $5
7: car fuel $ 50
8: kid school $ 150
7: miscellaneous $ 200

Total $ 1040 monthly

Pls kindly let use know yours because our people in Nigeria don't ever understand and they always demand and demand from us thinking there is a tree overseas that we pluck money from...and they pay their rent yearly o

May God bless our hussles

With Bell's unlimited Internet access, approximately $125 per month, and an overall best average cost of Internet $66 per month, regardless of brand, I wonder what would make you spend $450 per month for Internet in the same Ontario.

there are local markets but i mostly go there to get meat and other stuffs but not everytime, maybe once in 3 months... but as for the supermarket, i go there at least twice monthly or 3 times sef, it depends

my expenditure compare to my income is ok as i still have some extra cash to play around with...am not complaining lol

as for the country, its one of the most beautiful countries in the world but i can see its quite cheap compare to the few canadian monthly spendings above

Not too much. Living in a good community is great idea and cost more...rent 2000 or more or mortgage 4000 or more such community.
