How Much Do People Spend/Month In Vancouver?

[@ronaksvimadalal3570]

You should be viral man - great video - you're asking the questions everybody wants answers to but doesn't have the courage to ask

[@kaizabi]

Appreciate the kind words

10k a month girl has fucking family money. No recruiter is making a salary to justify that spending

[@letitallout123]

This.

[@TheHungfoo]

What I noticed is that despite the outrageous month to month expenses most of these people have, and how much each of them projected it would cost to live "comfortably" in Vancouver, none of them talked about putting any money aside for savings/investments like for their own house/apartment or retirement, etc. I'm not sure if this was just never asked or not included in the "other" category but it seems concerning they all assumed they'll be forever renters with little to no savings and living month to month. Although to be fair, the money most of these people were spending every month (aside from rent) seemed to be quite high, even for downtown Vancouver. Like the first lady that was spending 5.5k/month on other miscellaneous expenses?! Holy moly. The only one that seemed budget conscious were the Irish couple, lol

I really enjoyed this.... definitely a different view looking at how people spend their money vs how much they make

Great Video Iram! Top production quality!

[@kaizabi]

Much love man. I appreciate you

[@craigdcosta4806]

Iram, this is such a cool video! Also the production quality is awesome!!!

[@kaizabi]

Thank you so much. Glad you enjoyed

70k is what the average person makes in BC which is approximately 50k take home pay or $4200 a month If 2000-2500 a month goes to rent, you only got half left to spend on food and other miscellaneous items. Vancouver is a hard place to be for the average person

[@DistinctlyMeFilms]

Yup. I get paid twice a month and one whole paycheque goes to rent.

[@BlazerLz]

Average salary in BC is $53k. Post tax take home pay is roughly $39k making $3250 per month to live on. This is why the whole thing is going to come crumbling down.

Amazing video man! Great quality and cinematography. I need to know what that first girl’s company is to afford 10k a month! 😅

Ryan, always appreciate your support man. Haha yes, lets investigate.

$3500 for 2 bed 2 bath including utilities at west end sounds magical.

What video editing software do you use? Looks great!

[@kaizabi]

Premiere pro. Appreciate the kind words

[@globalfoodaction6748]

Massive overstatement that standard of living is automatically better off in Thailand. That's assuming you make Vancouver income or USD salaries but live in Thailand

[@kaizabi]

Precisely, I meant if income levels are maintained at similar levels. I appreciate you pointing it out 👍🏻🤝

What a relatable video, great work!

Where tf do you find $1.5k-2.5k rent in Van

[@tigerlee9613]

I spend $280 on food a month and I live in Toronto. How the heck do you spend over $1000 on food?

[@kaizabi]

Some folks just enjoy eating a lot haha. Thanks for stopping by my video 🙏😄

[@badgerbox]

Restaurants and ordering take-out/delivery. Dinner and a drink is at least $30. Do that 4 times a week, that's $480 a month. Plus groceries. A lot people don't even buy groceries and always eat out. $15 for lunch, $25 for dinner, times 30 days = $1200 a month. That's how.

[@spicer6666]

[@swaganomiks]

Feels like none of these folks own a car. With gas + insurance that will run you an additional $500-1000 a month. Crazy

[@paolointhenight]

Talk to anyone with a family. We pay 66K a year between mortgage and childcare alone.

[@laselecta9012]

I am C.O earn about 3 k a month without overtime. Can’t own a place. Even if I live outside of Vancouver.

[@harmony-bi6ks]

Rent should be under 900

[@yanyant-q1l]

better than LA. LA you need a car and transit sucks. at least vancouver has good transit and its expensive and a lot more hobos everywhere too

[@vancouveraerialphotography8685]

Brother you cut us out of the video 😭

[@kaizabi]

I'm so sorry man. From which part? Would love to have you on the next video.

Kaizabi, an Interior Designer is not an Architect.

[@kaizabi]

Good catch, thanks for pointing it out

[@McPorkyCheese]

I think one’s person’s opinion on “comfortable living” can differ greatly from person to person. Some people like to smoke, vape, go out to eat very frequently, and drink (like that Irish couple who spent $300 on a night of drinking! 🫢) Those are luxuries, not necessities so I personally think 6-8k/mo is still confortable (and I used to live on Beach Ave).

[@kaizabi]

You’re 100% right, it’s very subjective as different people have very different lifestyles. Thanks for sharing your thoughts 🙏🙂
