Hello everyone, my first post here. Advice are greatly appreciated. Not sure if this the right sub but just gave it a try.
As the title says, i'm a 25 y/o, fresh grad, working for my first job. I'm from Sarawak and currently work in KL with a gross salary of 3.5k/month. My monthly expenses are:
-300 for fuel
-200 for tolls (job involves a lot of commuting)
-400 for food
-250 for mum
-40 for telecom bills
-100 for other stuff (hair cut, etc..)
-0 for car (car is an old 2011 but reliable proton saga)
I haven't paid rental yet as i'm currently living in my aunt's house for the time being. My question is, what's the max amount of money if you were in my place, for rental + utilites? Is 650 too high? From my online searches, room rentals can be like rm 50-100 cheaper but far away (spend more on fuel, toll and worse, time) or too expensive for me to even consider. I found one which is about rm 650 per month for rental and utilities, and it is around 10 minutes of commuting to work.
I've stayed at my aunt's house for almost a month now, but my aunt has been giving me a lot of subtle hints for me to move out, and i feel uncomfortable staying here any longer. Thank you in advance for the help.
