@@denquiet I spent a lot of time canvassing. I suggest you look up places that are residential or with condo buildings then inquire face to face. I know there are listings online but for me, it's better to really walk around and see the units for yourself. :) spent around 5 Saturdays visiting places, so I wouldn't call this luck haha.

@marygracecanciller7554 4 күн бұрын

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 4 күн бұрын

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.

san po sa makati ung anime store na yan? new subs here. to be honest, nagulat ako sa rent mo at ranging to 10K. Data Analyst ka po noh? gusto mo refer kita sa ibang company +40 range ng sahod. pero no offense po ah, hmmmmm super laki nung rent mo for 10K, kala ko included na dn dun ung elec, water, internet bill via apartment. tapos ung food allowance mo eh mas mababa, meaning nag tipid ka sa health at food intake mo per month. curious lang po ako kung may other source ka pa ng incomce aside sa ytube? or any investment na mag results ng additional cashflow or monthly income mo po..

No offense taken 😆 Afford ko naman yung rent ko and we have food in our company at very cheap prices that's why I spend lesser on food, plus I cook my own food :) Thanks for the offer po but I'm okay with my job right now. Yung 23K po is not my salary, but my major expense only. 😁
