1, Is that for renting??? If so that is probally only a room. I pay £600 a month rent for a 2 bed house in Cambridge. Which is about 1 hour away from London.

2, Pass

3, I`ve got a 600k ntl connection and that costs me £25 uk pounds. May be better deals out there.

4, I`d say about £20,000 a year. Then again that all depends on how you live your life.

5, Pass

6, Pass

Hope this is of some help.
How come you are moving to the UK????

i live in the north of england but may be able to help. London is THE most expensive place in the UK!

1) 250 pounds rental is per week i would guess> and that's no joke to buy a 2 bedroom semi you can pay up to £250,000 easily! a nice big house would easily be 500,000.

2) a monthly travel pass is gonna be quite expensive 2. I think you'll find that the further you need to travel you may pay alot more i.e if you commute.

4) In my personal view to live a good life in London the very minimum you wanna be on is 30,000. The cost of living in London is so damn expensive

Hope this helps. and sorry to be the bearer of bad news!

you can get a slower speed broadband connection from www.tiscali.com for £15.99 a month, but £25 is the minimum you'll pay for 512kbps. Sorry!

i think the reason why rich asked if you want to try modding an mx3 here > was the fact that we pay around twice more for moddifying products in the uk. To modify the mx in the UK is very very expensive!

i dont see why people from the UK dont move to the US...w/the dollar doing as poorly as it is, you could move over here and you'd have almost twice the money, especailly if you moved to a smaller city in the midwest where the cost of living isnt all that high
