    What's the BAH out there like? Should be pretty good right since you're overseas? What about base housing? I know that's a lot of peoples last resort though.

    Right now base housing is a 2-10 month wait.

    BAH is 1130 Euro + 550 Euro for Utilities/Expenses

    I just dont know if it is like it is here in the states. Where I get 1130 reguardless of Rent.

    Cause when i lived in my Apartment I was putting like $75 in my pocket everymonth.. but my house im renting I pay $20 out of pocket for it ..

    I'm pretty sure the rules for BAH are the same everywhere if you're living off base. Find a house that isn't maxing out your BAH and pocket the rest. You should be able to make some pretty good money while you're over there, should be getting some good COLA as well.
