    I have 2 kids and live in Carlow renting 4bed semi for 750 add to that car finance 200 tv, broadband, gas, electricity, car insurance (1 car 2 drivers), road tax and other small bits. It cost me 1500 for basic bills, now will have to pay water charge as well. Food around 500-700 a month. fuel 100-300 a month. I recommend make a table in exel sheet with all your expenses and incomes and fill it every day every expense you got. Do it for next 6-12 months and you will have an idea what to expect and where you can save more or spend more.
