We just moved from Sarasota to the coast of NC after our home insurance went from $2500 to $7800. That was the straw that broke the camels back on top of record setting heat and red tide that never seemed to go away. Doubled our money on our home in 3 years and bought a nicer home for 1/3rd of the price.

Thank you!

A lot of people can't survive in FL, because they don't know how to budget their money. And live off of a 9 to 5, instead of creating their own thing. Don't try to keep up with the Jones, save your money & invest!

You’re content is fantastic

[@trulivingtampa]

Thank you for the compliment, and for watching!

[@oldtoughguy]

Awesome content, I don’t know how people do it, sounds crazy to me but I wish everyone in Florida the best- Thinking im good here in East Tennessee!

[@trulivingtampa]

Thanks for sharing!

It's just not in FL, it's everywhere. FL is just a tiny bit higher because you live , where ppl vacation at. BUT FL is no where near as expensive as NYC, CA, MD, Hawaii and few other states I am not aware of. The good thing about FL, is there is money there. FL doesn't have cities that been left for dead...if you truly want to succeed in FL, you will.

[@trulivingtampa]

Well said, Tommy. I couldn’t agree more.

[@barbararamphal3878]

How can you succeed when these jobs average $15 an hour?

[@marknewton6984]

Simplify. The Beachcomber agrees...

[@charleshart5563]

Most jobs pay between 15-20 an hour. Average rent is 1500 a month half of your wage goes to rent if not more. That doesn't include any other living expenses.

[@marknewton6984]

Hang in there. Florida always comes back😮!

[@seansanjose9394]

Incredible information!!!!

[@trulivingtampa]

Thanks Sean. I appreacte you.

[@stillwaters4097]

As someone who lives in Florida this is depressing.

[@trulivingtampa]

I could see that. Thanks for sharing.

Tampa flo and ADDRESS and PH# Al 👋

[@matthewthompson2313]

Just want to mention the math ain’t mathin’. We went from $3500 mortgage, plus $600 utilities. This equals $4100. Plus the $1700 in vehicle expenses. This is $5800. In the video it was stated as $6800. From that point all the numbers were skewed. So the end total is actually a $1000 less than what is states in this video. Just trying to clarify for the people 😉

Be a “Snowbird”…be here in the Winter and NOT in the Summer. It is BRUTAL hot. And gotten horribly expensive. And traffic is a nightmare. Getting very polluted, air and water. It’s bad. TampaBay IS a large urban city.

[@pliantsmith8760]

I am a cdl truck driver I want to live in fl really bad but I currently live in poverty Kentucky everyone says I’d never make it in fl what’s your thoughts

[@shannondavis5728]

I drive for Publix making $31.20 per hour!!!..Sherwin Williams & Walmart are paying truck drivers pretty good also.(I live in Lakeland)

[@pliantsmith8760]

@@shannondavis5728I heard for Publix you have to work in a store for like years before they will let you drive for them

[@trulivingtampa]

Great share! Thank you

[@Linda-mj2wv]

Think taxes!!!! Way out of reach.

[@charleshart5563]

First problem on food dont shop at Publix. Aldi Brother.

[@trulivingtampa]

Aldi is a good option and Publix is a choice for us, better quality and service. I'll suffer somewhere else. 😉 Thanks for sharing.

@@trulivingtampaSome content idea. Detailed Grocery prices, although i understand that may not be an exciting project 😅

[@johnmarshall6278]

He’s wrong on housing down payment . 75% have to put at least 15% down.

[@wesleyferguson6932]

Florida property taxs are crazy high. Especially in town. Enough to make you cry.

[@xfhnhhgjbvcfg]

Its very affordable, no income tax

[@trulivingtampa]

It’s definitely not for most. Thanks for sharing.

[@xfhnhhgjbvcfg]

@@trulivingtampa that was actually a typo it's supposed to say that it is Affordable ..
