What is a good salary for a single person to make?
That depends on where you live, and HOW comfortable you want to live. My idea of comfortable is being able to pay ALL my bills, buy food, clothes, and necessities, and go out on the weekend. Other people have higher standards of what "living comfortably" is. My Husband and I make $40,000 a year between us, I'm 19 and he's 21, and we're newlyweds. But, we live in an apartment, and you might live in a house with a mortgage. Cost of living can change dramatically from person to person, so I would say add up ALL your bills and leave room to add more bills, then estimate what you spend on food, clothing etc., and of course money you spend on gifts, going out, etc. That should give you a good start. Then think about what you need to make to cover all of that and still live "comfortably".
Is a 40,000 pounds per year (before tax) a good salary in London for a family of 4?
I rekon your wife would need to get a job to survive on £40k per annum, having 2 kids to look out for as well . Either that or you would need to buy a house and take in lodgers to help pay the mortgage as an extra source of income. Even in the worst areas of London a house costs £350000. So on your salary you may find yourself living in a 2 or 3 bedroom flat if you wanted to buy your own place.If you purchased your house via the government's London Help to Buy scheme, a£40000 salary would allow you to buy a house worth up to £327000. You would need a 5% deposit, the government would then lend you 40% of the purchase price ( interest free for the first 5 years ), then you would take out a 55% mortgage for the remaining 55% or £180k.You pay back the government's 40% share in the property whenever you can or when you sell the property. So for example if the property is worth £1million in the future when you are ready to sell the property but you haven't paid back any of the government's share in that property, you would have to hand over £400k of that £1million sale price to the government.Checking on Zoopla there were only a few 4 bedroom houses available anywhere in London for £325k or less. The nicest area was Orpington, Kent, which is within a London Borough. Most of the other 4 bedroom houses within that price range were in areas such as Dagenham, Barking and East Ham. For a house to qualify for the London help to buy scheme it has to be within a London Borough and it has to be a new build.There is a seperate Help to Buy government scheme which can be used for a property anywhere in the UK, including London. But the government only puts in 20% for that scheme. And the value of the property musn't be over £450k.If your wife got a job paying say £20k per annum; that £60k per annum income would allow you buy a property worth up to £491000 via London Help to Buy. £600k is the maximum value for a property to qualify for London Help to Buy. To afford a mortgage on a £600k property through the London help to buy scheme you and your wife would need a joint annual income of at least £73334.London Borough of Bromley is a popular area in London for families. Also Sutton, Enfield, and Hornchurch. These are nice areas on the outskirts of London that are more affordable than many other areas.
Does $1,770 bi-weekly equal a salary of $47k per year?
no there are 52 weeks in a year, divide that in half, as you said bi weekly, so multiply 1770 X 26 you get 46,020, or figure 1770 bi weekly is 885 a week, so multiply 885 X 52 you get 46,020 if you do it monthly it wont come out right, because some months have 5 weeks in them......so if you just do 1770X2 you are only accounting for 4 weeks in a month, not accouting for the months with 5 weeks
Is 80k a good salary for chicago? What can I realistically do with that salary? (As a single person.) How much can I save while still enjoying myself?
From a cost of living standpoint… at $80,000 per year you should not spend more than $2,200 per month on rent. I was an apartment leasing agent for a short while. $2,200 is an awkward amount because generally rents for decent one bedroom apartments jump from $1,400-$1,800 up to $2,400+. In my experience, if you are willing to live near but outside of downtown (Lincoln Park or Lakeview) you can find a great 2 bedroom for around $1,800. Many people come to the city and want to live downtown or in a trendy area. That’s fine, as long as you know what you’re going to get and what it will cost. Here is an example of a trendy building in a trendy area very near downtown. Here are examples of 1br or 2br of good size in another trendy area but not as centrally located (we’re talking about 15 minutes to downtown, not a far distance). And here are examples of the trendies if all areas with small or non-traditional somewhat affordable sometimes strangely laid out apartments. It all depends on the area.I don’t do apartment leasing anymore but if you’re looking for something I used to work for The Apartment Guys on Clark, they’re pretty straight up and it’s free. Don’t do a seach on the site, it’s not always updated, just call them and say I sent you (Chicago works like that).
