Can you save money?
Yes - Nov 2015
Not if you dine out frequently, or fly out of the country regularly to escape. - Aug 2014
If you’re not paying for housing it’s definitely possible, though you’ll have to make an effort. - Sep 2012
Well -- I suppose you could if you're frugal. If you want to participate in sporting events, enjoy some nice dining, take home a few carpets and do some regional traveling (India is so close!) then nope. And really, why try? This can be a fabulous opportunity! - Apr 2010

Ohh yes. - Dec 2008
Not a chance. In fact, you should pay off your credit card and student loans before arriving here. After a few months you'll be broke and planning a lavish trip out of here! - Aug 2008
