I don't have a breakdown quite that specific ... but I have seen my expenditure
ramp sharply up coinciding with the transition from school to full-time job,
what with the disposable income that entails. A couple of snapshots:
April 1999 through October 1999: ~$150 per month
October 2000 through March 2000: ~$200-$250 per month
April 2000 through June 2000: ~$400 per month
I'm trying to cut back a bit from my pattern of the last couple of months ... I
probably don't need to be spending $5k a year, surely ... or do I?
