In the United States my health insurance is 1,500 a month, Car insurance is a 150, I am ready to immigrate but I am tooooo old LOL. Hive is my very first look at real people from all over the world with diverse cost of livings. In the U.S. I would starve trying to write full time! But in other countries you could in a year or two blog full time as a career. The U.S. has me wanting to immigrate so I could do what I love full time. I love your posts, they give me an incredible insight! And India fascinates to no end!
