So how much rent do you pay and what are your living conditions? Btw I never owned a car in my life and only have one cell phone which is prepaid and I almost never use it, so my expenses with it are minimal(around 10 $ every 3 months or so).

I pay $500 a month in rent for everything, and live with one other person who has become a good friend.
After work, I either go snowshoeing, cross country skiing, out walking for photos or mountain biking. On the weekends I am always out of town hiking/camping/hunting/canoeing/snowboarding/fishing/etc.
Besides cooking, eating and sleeping, I spent less than an hour a week at my rented house, so the fact that it's cheap works very well for me. It also has a grass backyard, so I sit out there and read books when the weather permits.
