I freelance so i can work 4 days in a month or 24... The good thing my rent is so damn cheap ($1000 - split in half with my gf, so $500/piece) that i can make my rent in less then a day's work.

I can't do the math. Before taxes, I pulled in $10,633 in a month (Salary + Freelance + Investing) and my rent is $600.

About 15% (with taxes). That includes splitting the mortgage down the middle with my girlfriend.

My rent and my mortgage combined, I'm paying around 25%.
40% for just rent is ridiculous.
