Answer 1

It's really not enough, even if you have a roommate.

Answer 2

get a bunk bed & a roomate, & a closet to rent! then spend all your waking moments enjoying a beautiful city!

Answer 3

Is this your first job after graduation? If so, the more experience you get, the more valuable you become to the company, or another company.

BTW, you didn't say what field you are in. I'm assuming it's insurance, since your question in under the "Insurance" catagory.

Neither did you say if you are in sales or administative work.
