I live in Tampa, FL USA
an electric bill of 350 is not a very hard thing to get down here in the summer
and also in a trailer that is a P.O.S
and the water company is also a Privately owned company and charges a crazy rate ( that is why there is a class action lawsuit against them by alot of people in the area )
Well the $500 ( everything included ) is possible since one of my church members has a place that they own it is not much just a one bedroom place that he has agreed to rent me for $500/month with everthing included
That's all reasonable I guess. Moving in to that trailer in the first place is unfortunate though. The church member won't count the car as collateral in place of the deposit? Hell, maybe you could give/sell him the car for the deposit and he could let you keep using it as long as you paid the rent.
