Signed Lease on House
17 July - Signed the lease on the house. Really different here in Germany. Rent is 1575 euros a month but you pay the landlord some utilities. The house has oil heat so I pay him 215 euros a month and once a year, I get a bill for how much oil we use. Same with trash and water.
I have a seperate account with the electric company. It is the same in the US with a steady bill but one bill a year and you either owe more or get back a refund.
Today a euro is .62 euros to the $ so the rent monthly is 2005 euros or approx $3250 a month. Military pays the rent and a certain amount a month for utilities. If you are under that amount, you keep it, if over, then it is out of your pocket.
