    I never actually sat down and counted how much money i'm spending a day.
    But it depends on where your going, and what you are doing on that night. :D

    1200 in a month as a student... lol, thats quite a lot for a dutch student, however the studyies are cheaper.

    I live at home and excluding my study, i pay around 50 cents a day?

    $200 - $300 for me and This is way too much for a single guy but I can't help myself when it comes to spending money. And these days I'm learning my lesson :)

    I can't imagine how much $$$$ daily you'll be needing. Mortage from Toronto for houses are pricey! (at least compared to other provinces.. except BC 'cause they're more expensive lol)

    Actually, I don't usually drive. For my office job (which I'll hopefully quit soon), I take the bus most days, only drive once or twice per week. But gas is costly nonetheless

    Regarding income tax, I'm happy that lots of this net income is foreign, so it's not taxed the same!
