• We’re in a transitory fully furnished apartment, now.. so the rent skyrocketed from $384.50

• Includes TV, telephone, all appliances & even furniture in the price (note: I’m paying 50%)
  
• Best Purchase of the Month: I bought an iPod Cassette Adapter for only $2 at a dollar store!! (Best Buy tried to sell me one for $30. Pirates!)
  

BUSINESS EXPENSES: $1856.61

• Hotels are not cheap!
• When I say “buying food” in the other city, it’s pre-cooked food to eat with rice or noodles
  
• More expensive than just cooking from scratch, but toting food back and forth is no small task
  
• Also.. I have to pay for PARKING!? What’s up with that, Client? 😛
