luxury cars san diego image
Bestro D
lets say i am making $120,000 per year. I want to live in a one bedroom apartment, not in the bad neighborhoods. I have a used car(BMW). No children or wife. Factor in gas prices, entertainment, food, taxes, fees, insurance. Not much a big spender on luxury stuff.
Answer
The first poster is way off.
Taxes will take 40% off the top (Federal, State, SDI, FICA)
401K contribution @4% : $4800
A nice place will be $20,000 a year.
Car insurance on a late model BMW will be about $1200-1400/yr.
Car registration is a personal property tax based on the vehicle's value (which means you can deduct it) is aprox. $250.
I assume your BMW uses premium gas @ +$2.50/gal. With 20 MPG and 18,000 miles a year (You drive everywhere), aprox. $2000 for gas
Utilities $1000.
Food: $1200
Entertainment $2500
Net: $40,000

Can you freeze homemade gaucamole? I have a bunch of fresh avacado's and I know I have seen frozen gaucamole
kidpsychan
in the store. Are there any tips or recipes for better freezing? Thank you.
Answer
I only could find one referance to frezzing gaucamole and it was : you CAN freeze guacamole as long as you use a food prosesser . but I found some other great facts about Avocados.
Avocados are a fruit, not a vegetable, belonging to the genus Persea in the Lauraceae family.
Avocados are sodium- and cholesterol-free and have only five grams of fat per serving, most of it the monounsaturated kind.
Avocados were once a luxury food reserved for the tables of royalty, but now California avocados are enjoyed around the world by people from all walks of life.
Brazilians add avocados to ice cream
Filipinos puree avocados with sugar and milk for a dessert drink.
The avocado is also called an Alligator Pear because of its pear-like shape and green skin.
Avocado is a corruption of the Spanish word aguacate, which is in turn a corruption of the Aztec word ahuacatl.
California produces about 90% of the nation's avocado crop.
San Diego County is the Avocado Capital of the U.S., producing 60% of all the avocados grown in California.
There are about 7,000 avocado groves in California; the average size is around 10 acres.
A single California avocado tree can produce about 500 avocados (or 200 pounds of fruit) a year although usually average about 60 pounds from 150 fruit.
There are seven varieties of avocados grown commercially in California, but the Hass is the most popular, accounting for approximately 95% of the total crop volume.
California avocados grow year-round.
About 43% of all U.S. households buy avocados.
California Avocados and the Environment
California avocado farmers rely on Integrated Pest Management (IPM) to combat pests and diseases. As a result, California avocados rank among the lowest of all fruits and vegetables for pesticide use.
If treatment for pests is necessary, the softest chemicals are selected to have the least impact on the environment and on beneficial organisms in the orchard.
With the number of California avocado groves becoming Certified Organic the trend toward organic production is on the rise. New Certified Organic avocado acreage is coming into production in California each year to meet the ever-increasing demand for organically grown fruit.
Avocado orchards help renew our air supply and keep it fresh by absorbing carbon dioxide and producing oxygen.
In one year, a single California avocado tree can absorb as much carbon as is produced by a car driven 26,000 miles.
Two mature avocado trees can provide enough oxygen for a family of four.
One avocado tree produces nearly 260 pounds of oxygen each year.
A one acre avocado orchard removes up to 2.6 tons of carbon dioxide each year.
Southern California avocado orchards remove 25 - 88 lbs of (dry nitrogenous) pollutants per acre from the environment. (Based on University of California deposition data).
Orchard trees lower air temperature by evaporating water in their leaves.
Avocado tree roots stabilize the soil and prevent erosion.
Avocado orchards can reduce storm run-off and the possibility of flooding. By slowing runoff and filtering rain water, orchards can improve water quality.
Avocado orchards provide shelter for wildlife.
