Good first video, quick suggestion, for “know your audience” it would be much easier for the audience if you narrated everything in dollars instead since majority of your target audience would not be based in Dubai. Best luck with your channel!

Living the best life you can Until you HAVE TO retire because of Age or Health. Then you are Fcked, 40+ years of saving a few % of your income won't cover 1 year of expenses if you don't have a job. OWNING a place to live is really the only way anyone will retire in Canada, Renting your whole life, is not living your best life it is postponing the inevitability of living on the streets after retiring because paying rent on CPP basically meaning you have no food and no money for anything else.

This doesn't seem realistic you're not taking into account the long waiting times Canadians are waiting for medical treatment or the benefits british people get in comparison there are plenty of properties to rent for £400-600 a month... I'm seeing hardly any properties below $1500 a month in Toronto that's £866.64 for conversion rate: so for expat this is garbage unless you're saying the benefits system covers all that in rent which I doubt. Good luck affording groceries let alone basic human living by that logic. You have to use up the $1518 for single individuals as quoted on the Government for canada website. A single person could be awarded £943.45 a month monthly in London and that's not even on disability, all I needed was to look up a postcode and use a benefits calculator and I was done. It seems pretty ridiculous that a person on benefits could be getting this much no wonder we have such ridiculous immigration numbers. I'm surprised that's all you guys get can a Canadian confirm this figure? This means unless you have a job, you can't afford rent. I also hear you guys get taxed like hell so to say it's a 3.2 affordability is a joke - if you were comparing benefits you'd rank london much higher. I think you need to clarify why it's 3.2, you probably haven't lived in the UK to understand that.

Very informative video, most of the stuff is pretty close. Rent outside of the GTA(greater Toronto area) is alot less. I'm an hour away I am renting a new 2 bedroom basement for 2000 per month. Restaurants are more expensive for a family of 3 it's gonna cost between $70-100 plus tips. Gym cost for a good gym starts at $60 per month. Cell phone bills are between 40-100 depending on the plan and carrier. Groceries can run you between $60-$200 per trip. Some of the stuff of numbeo are close, but with inflation they have went up quite a bit. Homelessness and crime are rampant lately, these are all due to the cost of living mostly. Great video, I dropped you a like

This is a good video. If you are looking to live a good and comfortable life in zone 2, you will definitely need about ~£4,000 a month net. You’ll be living a somewhat comfortable life but certainly not a luxurious life. The figures of ~£5,000+ aren’t attainable for most people given pension contributions and student loans.

It would have been a great video, if only was well documented. All the prices are as if the video was made at least 18 months ago, except maybe for groceries. I pay £1800 for rent, in zone 3, and that's just because I got a discount for staying in the same place for 7 years. The usual rent in my area is at around £2000, or even higher. Council tax is £120/pcm. The bills are over £300 in total. Heating alone this month is an eye-watering £116, electricity £79, phone £46 (for a sim-only plan), internet £35 (only because I changed the provider, Virgin was charging £64 last year for an internet-only plan). Then add water bill every once in a while, and the TV licence tax. Netflix was probably never £10.99, and now it is £17.99. I don't buy my groceries at M&S or Waitrose, and I still spend over £350 every month (for one person!). I think I've never been below £300, not even back in 2017. A pint almost anywhere in zone 1 annd 2 is well above £6, sometimes above £7. Only close to my place in zone 3 I had recently 2 pints at £5.85 a piece. And the whole calculation doesn't even take into account things like toiletries or clothing and footwear, not to mention that every once in a while you have to change a lightbulb, or you need to buy e.g. a new coffee machine. What about holidays, let's say once a year? My salary was until recently £65K, and I realised that I started to literally spend 100% of my income. That's why I decided that it's time to leave London, and go back home, where I can have a decent life for less than €2000 per month, which is totally something I can make.

Thank you for your comment Teodor. Most of the prices mentioned in the video are based on averages that I researched online back in January for a single person living alone. Just to clarify on a few of your points: - While rent might be that high in your area of zone 3, that's not the case for the boroughs that I mention in the video. I've found plenty of 1 bedroom flats going for £1,600 or even lower on Zoopla. - Like I said in the video, council tax is a tricky one as it varies from borough to borough and flat to flat but generally, single people pay between £100 and £150. - All utilities mentioned were based on averages from numbeo.com, including phone and internet. - There are 3 Netflix plans available at the moment. The one mentioned in the video is the standard plan (ideal for people living alone) and does cost £10.99. - As for groceries, this is another tricky one that depends on lifestyle, like how much you eat, what your diet is, whether you buy mostly frozen or mostly fresh. But it is doable for 1 person to spend £200 a month at M&S or Waitrose. - As for all the other things you mention like changing a lightbulb, getting a new coffee machine, going on holiday, etc would fall under the 20% savings section of the budget. I kept these kind of things in mind which is why I added it in. It sucks how expensive London has gotten in recent years and I don't blame you for wanting to leave! I understand that not everyone has the same needs or lifestyle which is why I discuss 2 different salaries in the video, so that people can decide for themselves where they would fall inbetween those 2 salaries. Again, I appreciate the feedback but just know that I tried my best in my research to get the most accurate numbers possible even though some people might end up spending more or less. 🙂
