  1. Costs vary widely from one state and city to another.  A room can cost over $1000 a month in New York City, or $500-800 in a smaller town or the midwest.  If you have to pay utilities, plan on about $300/mo., more in winter for heat and summer for air conditioning.  A very modest food budget (if you are allowed to cook in your room) is $300 per person per month.

    As for wages, what's your education, experience and skills?  Remember that federal, state & local taxes take about half of your income.  So at $10/hr or $400/wk gross, take-home pay is under $300/wk, and there are still taxes on everything you purchase, taxes on utility bills, etc.

    The job market stinks right now.  We are flooded with immigrants and work permit holders and illegal aliens, plus the US needs to create a minimum of 2 million net new jobs per year just to provide work for US-born citizens entering the job market.  Major glut of labor.  Real wages have not risen in 30 years.  Unemployment is rising at the fastest rate in at least 30 years.  It is so bad that illegal aliens, work permit holders who have been terminated, even some legal permanent residents are leaving now because they cannot get work.

    Your job opportunities are very limited.  You should think some more about coming to the States, if you are admissable at all.


  2. The answers to your question really depends on where you plan to live. Expenses vary greatly from city to city.

  3. Well, if you come here, move to Texas. It's the best place to live in by far and housing is the cheapest here.

    You can get a full time job (8 hrs), and there may even be 12 hour jobs too. Yes, there's plenty of jobs where you can earn that much money

    In Kansas, it's about 600 dollars a month. I hear Texas is cheaper though. That would be the only thing you pay if you move to an apartment. The bills can go up to 1000 a month.

    Move to the south. It's the most affordable part of the US to live since not everyone is moving there. Places like Florida, New York, California are much more expensive because so many people are always moving there.

  4. ,just do all those things in Egypt, because it was the greatest civilization at one point, re build at home instead of running away, you must want to feel free to sin against god, cause i know in Africa they do play that, especially in and Arab country like Egypt

  5. Yes, you can find work for $6-10 per hour. Picking a state you might want to first consider what college or university you would like to attend for your MBA and move to that state/ city. That way you could get comfortable and settled close to where you plan on going to school. I live in West Virginia and the university here, WVU, West Virginia University in Morgantown WV is very affordable, the cost of living is also very low compared with most other states. Also, West Virginia is within close driving distance to New York City, Washington DC and even Canada! WVU is also very ethnically diverse. You can expect to pay anywhere from $400/month - $900/ month for rent and utilities.

  6. There is a wide, wide, wide range of possibilities for you.

    What kind of job?

    Yes you could get a job for that amount easy.... and if you get your MBA you are looking at loads more money.  Do you speak Arabic or any other second language?  Lots of bigger city companies recruit foreign language speakers....

    Rooms, depending on where you live, vary as well.  Do you want to live in the ghetto or in the high class neighborhood?  Do you want an apartment.  When I was in college, I once rented an apartment for 390/month all bills paid.  

    Bills include phone, electricity, water (with trash included), and cable/internet if you want it.  Cars and auto insurance are a thing to consider as well.  Sometimes apartments rent with some of the utilities included.

    For me to tell you what state, I would first need to know what you are looking for in a job.  All big cities have what you are looking for.  I live near Dallas, TX.

  7. NO mention of wanting to become a US Citizen?

  8. You are welcome to the US and to contribute to this country's diversity. There are many states you can come here that offer great opportunities on all industries.

  9. Rent and all other expenses ? $1500.00 USD minimum. State:Oklahoma or Idaho. Oklahoma because the legislature gave federal government a "slap". The passed a resolution affirming state sovereignty as per 10th amendment of Bill of Rights USA Constitution. FG is a treasonous lot !
