			The last full time job I had (2004-2006) I was paid £13.5k per annum.  
 
That works out as a little under $22k per year. Some of that went to Income Tax and National Insurance. Leaving me with a net income of: approximately £10900, or $17700 
 
Out of which I had to pay $7300 in rent,  $800 in Council Tax, and approx. $2500 in Gas and electric. 
 
After rent, tax and fuel, I was left with approximately $7k per year for everything else. 
 
And that's in the North, where prices are comparatively low.
