How much money do you need for personal uses in a month?

[Stardom22]

For me l literally need like $300 to cater for my family and my needs for the whole month

 

[eLdavis]

For me I think it depends, I do not have a Specific amount I use within a month. It depends on the things I need to sort out for that month.

I need at least $1000 to pay my bills, If I want to live a comfortable life and save money and invests money every month, I need around $1500. Inflation is very high here and it is difficult to manage life with less than $1000

 

[freelancermaria]

My rough estimate is $400-$500. It can go up at times, particularly when there are unforeseen expenses. Fortunately, my rent is not prohibitively expensive.

 

[AruneBend]

at least 1000 dollars is good for me to survive but I would not be able to buy things that is not a must it is not a great life and it sucks

 

[mrki444]

I think I spend around 600euros per month. I will save some money when my best friend leave and go work. Then I will spend less time in bar.

To really estimate how much a person would need for basic survival in a month with the way inflation is ravaging us is very difficult. I think that $40 is the basic I would need to survive monthly.

In my case my expenses fluctuate because of gasoline price, electric bill, Internet bill, vitamins, daily needs and more but the least I could spend is more or less $800.It's my sister who pays the water bill gasul tank and splitted food expenses. Life is getting harder this time. We need side hustles at least 3 or more.

 

[SHAHID987]

For my personal uses I need on an average only $100 a month. Which I use in bike petrol, medicines and other necessities. So here at least we need $500 to run a joint family.

 

[Augusta]

For a month I don't think I need anything less than $200 to live above board. Things are really expensive here.

 

[arunima25]

I am not counting my household expenses like grocery, bills, tuition and other fees for my two daughters, medical expenses,savings, investment etc here. For my personal use, I spend around 100 to 150 dollars monthly on myself. This includes my personal care( visiting salon, parlour etc), going out for movies and meals with friends and my commutations. This would be around 10 K indian rupees per month.

The costs of commodities this time are skyrocketing, unstoppable so we cannot budget our money and cannot decide whether we can maintain our budget in a month.

For me l need at least $150 for my general spending for the family. However this amount is not that easy to get with the current inflation.

That's right that amount apart from hard to achieve it's still not enough for the family because of the extended rate of inflation we're facing this time.

Even though I live alone in a boarding house, I have to pay all the bills, water and electricity that I use, as well as wifi subscriptions, food, transport, etc. around $1k

That is a huge amount of expenses monthly. I am budgeting more because of the gas appreciating in its value plus food and others for sustenance.

Yes, currently I still need quite a lot of money because I am still paying for the tax course

How much you spend on personal hygene? Shower gel become very expensive so I had start use classic soap.

 

[King Belieal]

As a single person, I have to say that I lead a very simple life and with good strategy, $100 is enough for me in a month even in the face of this inflation.

 

[Kross]

As a single person, I am okay with $100 every month for basic survival. I know that is going to quadruple when I get married.
