Summer Banks
A quick rundown.
This is where we're starting from:
Regular Sources of Income:
Job at Sony Computer Entertainment, care of Nelson: $14/hour at 37 hours/week.
Job at Starbucks Coffee: $9.50/hour at 17 hours/week, plus weekly tips at ~$25.
Internet endeavors: $nothing, yet!
Expenses:
Rent: $600/month to share a studio.
Nine monthly credit card bills: ~$300/month.
Transportation on train and bus: $100/month.
Utilities (internet/water): $80/month.
Storage unit: $70/month.
Cell phone: $30/month.
Debts:
Estimated student loan debt: $75,000.
Estimated credit card debt: $13,000.
Debt to ex-girlfriend: $1900.
Debt to George, a friend: $100.
Recent candidates for accusations of idiocy:
Trip to Tokyo, Japan: $550 airfare, $150 accommodations, ~$150 food and drink?
Forthcoming causes for worry:
- Iceland! Food? Bills? Will I even be able to buy myself a single beer?!
- Money to store my broken car somewhere? (Repairing is currently OOTQ.)
- Moving truck rental
- New storage unit costs
- Where will I live when I get back? How long until I can afford a rent payment?
- September: need to get to Japan to present lecture at DiGRA games research conference.
