If you plan to live close to uni, then I guess transport won't be needed much?

Guesstimate: Around $400 - 500/month

thats like 15 dollars a day, personally would need at least 30 -40

It is probably the least you could expect 2 pay 4 sharing...
Also depends on what kind of rent you want to be paying. Some are like $200 a month and others are like $500 so it makes a huge difference.

And its only an ESTIMATE.

This is mine, i live in my own apartment (all in a month):

rent = $200 a month (bout a km walk to uni)

transport = Free (walk) or $8.4x4 (if you going to the city)

groceries = $400

internet: clubtelco = $50

utilities: Tele = $20
Electicity = $50-90

how did you get rent down so low?
I'm looking at sharing a duplex or unit around kensington or redfern with another friend.
2 bedroom's run at about $400-600 a week - $200 per week, not month?
