I'm in the job hunt. As you probably know, America's economy is tanking hardcore. I've found a job opportunity in London, but I need to do some research first.
It says it pays about 50,000 USD/year, which translates to like 36,000 pounds (with taxes and all not taken out). Is that doable in London? Can I live off that? I have an intense fear of roommates due to some doozies that I had in college and I eat a lot, so that's a factor. I also tend to crank the heat in winter (I've lived in Florida for 18 years), so that affects electricity bills.
I really have NO way of knowing if I can survive off the salary. I'd need like a flat (I guess that's what you call apartments over there) with a bedroom, kitchen, and bathroom in a safe part of town. I dunno about a car - driving on the other side of the road kinda creeps me out. So uhh....transportation costs too?
Help!! Thanks
