How much money do you need to save to move out?

I don’t make much so it really depends on the time sheet. I make $14.50 an hour but as a teacher’s assistant. I get like $1000 sometimes $2,000 something a month but the school year is 9 months. They do take taxes off. I just started working there in November so for five months.

@Iwillwait are you serious?! I don’t make that much money in a month

@ElizabethBabe1994 average rent is 1500, you'll need that amount twice for 1st and last month, plus damage deposit.

@Iwillwait shit. I keep telling my friend that rent is high but she keeps telling me to look for a low income places and stop being close minded and be open to options and I’m the only person that she trusts and prefers me to be roommates.

@ElizabethBabe1994 $1500 is low.
You can rent a room in someone's home for $700-$1000

@Iwillwait Yeah true but still. She keeps bugging me to be roommates. I understand I am the only person she trusts but I really don’t know. My dad needs help
