I%26#039;m getting a job of 40 K / Year in UK ?Birmingham, I really need to know ground figures of living costs there, I mean what is an average or minimum family house rent, how much does it need to get driving license if u even have previous, what about taxation, food %26amp; home expenditures, or any other expenses which are necessary to know. I would be thankful.
