Car = Tube

Found a nice room, furnished, cheap, inclusive of all bills and in a nice suburb called Ealing. This is the amount I will pay a month to go from home to work (and this is on the cheap end) if I move in to the flat:

116 British pounds sterling = 189.5440 US dollars

That's my car insurance payment. And that's not bad at all. Also need to factor in going to city on weekends as well that's another $15 or more. Two of my sales reps pay 320 GBP or $520 a month to commute on the tube to work and back every month. That's insane. Most people don't have cars who live in the city - kind of like NY - but lots pay the equivalent in public transportation.
