Write one paragraph that addresses these items:

-Type of apartment (2 bedroom 2 bath, etc.)
-The work schedule you want (8-5/7-3, etc.)

  Do a monthly budget of cost:
1.  Figure out you income and expenses
2.  Monthly Income:
-Look at your salary and multiple it by .65.  Take this number and divide it by 12.  This will give you your monthly income.
-Any part-time work; Bonus, etc. (divide by 12)
*Add the salary and any other  income together and that gives you your monthly income

3.  Monthly Expenses:
-examples include rent, utilities, car payment, school loans, credit cards, cell phone, social fund, etc.

4. Net Monthly Total:
-subtract your monthly expense total from your monthly income total and that gives you your monthly net total  (must be positive)
