When you’re making a budget to move to Hollywood, keep these things in mind.
I moved to Los Angeles in 2012 and got a job as an assistant. When I look back on those days, the only thing that shocks me is how little money I was paid and how little I could live on. If you want to move to Hollywood, you must realize that the expenses will be high. But it can be hard to make an accurate budget for a place you know only little about. Well, that’s where I want to help today.
I want to take you through a budget reflecting what it costs to live in Los Angeles. We’ll break down the cost of living for a one-bedroom apartment, plus utilities and expenditures, and even theorize what your salary might need to be to cover this nut.
As we talked about last week, it’s increasingly hard for people who are poor or middle class to break into Hollywood. If you know what it costs, you can save and prepare as needed before you make the big move.
Make sense? Let’s dive in.
