@Gilgamesh, it's the rent. Depending on where you have to live for your work/school, it gets expensive.

I dunno'. I've grown accustomed to assuming that "I have to ____" in this context really means "I can't walk more than 20 minutes a day/I don't want to cook my own food/I'm incredibly materialistic and can't live without all the things society tells me I need."

There are two people and a dog in my household (not counting the roommate). I'm confused by what you mean by "the game is optional", though. ![[Image: SigBarSping_zpscd7e35e1.png]](https://images.weserv.nl/?url=i169.photobucket.com%2Falbums%2Fu224%2FUchiha_Kina%2FTags%2FSigBarSping_zpscd7e35e1.png) 
My only bills are rent, car insurance, gas (I fill up my tank once a month), phone, food (I cook most days... I love it), and utilities. My rent alone is about $14,000 a year, and I have a roommate.

There are people who commute total of 3-4 hours a day to and from work/school just for cheaper rent prices though. Cos you pay less and get bigger places if you live further away from the city. 
If you want to live in a cardboard box under an overpass you can probably get by on a couple of bucks a day.
In fact, that seems to be the ultimate end game for the bulk of the population as far as the republibertarianeo-conazis are concerned. 
The things I need to spend money on is rent, food, other bills and meds. I could get by with 1 500€ per month (and support Scruffy, who's unemployed atm) and live comfortably according to my own standards.
When I was young, there was a god with infinite power protecting me. Is there anyone else who felt that way? And was sure about it? but the first time I fell in love, I was thrown down - or maybe I broke free - and I bade farewell to God and became human. Now I don't have God's protection, and I walk on the ground without wings, but I don't regret this hardship. I want to live as a person. -Arina Tanemura

A politician in the UK touted £25 (38.5USD) a week on food. I can happily manage that. I manage without my own transport. My house is about paid off. I'll have to go check my bills..
I can cut my expenses down to a very low rate. I am certainly capable of living from 600 Euros a month, maybe even 500.
But currently I have alot of money so I dont need to cut down on anything 
I don't need money, I can simply go and live with one of my relatives if I wanted to.
