Decent Essays

Description Of The Task:
I think that in this POW I am completing a yes or no survey, (i.e. do I want to have roommates? Do I want to go to college? Do I want to get a part-time job?). After I complete these questions it would go into a more serious fashion, like if I decide to go to college, which one would I choose to attend? Would I rent a dorm? (sorry for all of the examples). Then I have to total the expenses of all of the things I would rent and find a job that can cover those prices as well as find my revenue and profit.

Your Living Arrangement:
The BuzzFeed thing up top is for NYC citizens, just to clarify.
I want to go to college, so I’ll likely get a dorm with scholarship help. I don’t want to have a roommate because I might be extremely unlucky and get stuck with someone exceptionally annoying. To meet electricity and whatever bills I’ll use my job money to pay it off as I suck at sports that my dad dragged me into and won’t get any additional scholarship money. Finally, furniture. The dorm I arranged provides a bed, a couch, and a small desk big enough for a desktop computer. The dorm is $720.00 each semester

A Monthly Budget:
I got my numbers from a student job website thingy and the college that provides the dorms, both telling incomes and expenses, job being $22.00 an hour and the dorm’s semesterly rent being $720.00. I would work 4 hours daily, 4 * 22 = $88.00 daily. To meet the semesterly price I would have to work a total of 8-9 days, being able to spend the rest on food and paying off other bills like electricity.
