I personally spend: $600 rent + $200 food + $150 transport + $25 misc (gym/hookers/blow). It's below poverty in the US.
i was going to rent a room in a house, what do you think about this?
If you can go to school for no debt or very cheap - do it. If you feel you don't need to and can start work sooner - skip school.
Yes!
I lived in a 3BR house with 4 people for 4 years.
It became quite annoying after year 3 due to female drama. Just be careful.
3BR, 4 people is spacious
i work as a DBA currently, but i don't work with other programmers so they don't appreciate workload/ my own capabilities (i'm junior) - so it's not a bad role but i want to move to a role where i can learn
gotya
i can rent my own flat for £1100 a month - tho money would be tight then
@JDB If you're already working as a DBA - don't attend school. Use this role to start pivoting into development or whatever you want. Learn the skills you need to fix problems at that job and start showing it off.
"Oh Jim, you need a script to automate that?" I got you.
FUCK NO
Don't rent your own spot for 1100/mo
lmao, aite i wont
Bite the bullet and get a roommate or two.
UNLESS you REALLY hate people...
1100 is insane on 2k/mo income
ye
A rule of thumb is indeed to spend max 1/3rd of your income on rent
gotya
i can afford more food too that way
You want a nice place though because you will be studying a lot OR a shitty place but only sleep there basically and study at public places. It's a personality thing.
I workout and love food so I spend $200/mo but I don't eat out/prepared meals or drink. I get groceries and I never need BS.
would there be a lot of startups that would hire someone without a CS degree?
$25 on hookers... what kind of hookers you getting bruh @secrite
Do you have a GitHub?
Do you have skills?
If so, yes.
If not, get those 😄
DBA is good experience. SQL is needed.
ok - i will
@Longshanks Imaginary ones 😉
iam going to develop my skills in data science
Good idea!
I need to start learning that.
sounds like you need a spinning robot pussy @secrite

I'd try to get some real skills quick - python/bash/linux admin/DBA/etc - then unite those with data science and start delivering results to your company.
