Ive got some problems and I may have brought them down upon myself but that is behind me now and I have to look ahead. So in a nutshell, I graduated this june, moved out to vegas to live with some relatives, originally for free but my uncle insisted I pay him (my other relatives were against it) I was fine because I had to be an adult and pay rent to live in someone elses house. Ive moved out here and for three months sucessfully work three jobs and hopefully am getting a salary job soon. Now I moved out here to go to UNLV but cant afford it right now with the out of state tuition fees so plan to work a year and get as much money as I can for next year. Here is my problem: Right now it just isnt working living with a family member who 1. didnt want me here in the first place, 2. changes the rent on a whim 3. finds every excuse to critisize me. Which I can understand, im a very open minded hard working kind of person so I need to plan to move out. I moved out here because I knew in missouri I would find no acting jobs which is my passion and what ive done my whole life. I think LA or long beach would be a better town for that career field but I need to make sure I can sustain myself out there first. I have a strong work ethic and graduated with honors from high school, so I know I have to potential I just need to know how easy/hard it is to land a job and sustain myself. Now, the bulk of my question: what is the cost of living bare minimum, ive lead a very comfortable life and have my essentials clothing, shoes, etc and do not plan on selfish spending except for internet and phone, and only spending money on things I need.
Please any information, advice or experiences with situations like this I would be so appriciative for. I am looking for advice on this scenario. If anything happens I can always go back home but I feel I need to "grow up" and take it like an adult. If I go back I will be stuck there forever. Thanks for your time.
