general expenses, those can be highly variable, depending on how important is the choice of restaurant dine, the club where a drink or just
B ar & Grill where you can meet with friends. Here however there are many restaurants offering: All you can eat! pay a fixed fee, usually not very low, for example $ 25-30 and you eat what you want as long as the stomach will hold. I must say that in Rome, with 15-20euro you can not even pay you to dinner on the kebabbaro Laurentina. But Rome was not built in a day ...
Other major expenses that would like to list, and that could be classified as fixed costs are:
Metro Pass monthly - $ 109.00 (well in Rome is € 30 - but to compare ATAC - TTC would be depressing ...)
Token pass a Metro trip - $ 2.75
Cinema - $ 12.50
Barber / Hairdresser - $ 50 (I would say are expensive - at 90% your barber is Italian - of course, third-generation - and is not never been in Italy)
Gasoline price: between $ 0.83 - $ 0.84 a liter - and here is saying that even in Dubai the price of gasoline is so low. With the eyes of an Italian imagine The result is a figure unimaginable , if not in some political campaigns. This explains why everyone in here running SUV.
Overall the cost of living here is not excessive, the rent in a big city like Toronto, Canada's largest, are on average lower than our capital. But many other things are more expensive: car insurance ( put in mind that the car will cost more than the girlfriend ), specialist medical expenses (if you do not have insurance ), mobile ( 10 years behind Europe and dear as nothing! ), taxes, general services such as mechanical, electrical, plumbing, these groups earn more than a plastic surgeon in California.
here for the rest of the technology has some lower prices compared to the Bel Paese, computers, TV, small and large elttrodomestici are really cheap, especially compared to average wages.
The clothing can not, as is normal, be compared with our fashion, but you can choose pretty well. However it is very important to remember that everything here, from Canada to the European stuff is proudly Made in China!
