Travel Tips
I dont know how the modle market is in Chicago! but , I do know that Chicago is better than Detroit. I been to Detroit, and it was horrbile, and sooo dirty and rundown! get out!lol
I'm not going to lie. Chicago is a very exspensive city. Rents are higher than Detroit. If you want to live in a nice area, u will have to pay a good amount. I would go to Craigslist.com and see if anyone is looking for a "room-mate", it would be could to split the rent for now. And look for room-mates in the downtown area. I'm pretty sure, thats where the models go.
I would sya go to Miami or Los Angeles, but thats really gettin exspensive!
If u come here (Chicago), take the train or Greyhound, not the plane. The train is like 5hrs, but cheaper than a plane.
Before, u come here, try to save as much as u can.
you will need to put frist months rent (full) and a security deposit on an apartment, and u will need money to live off of until u start making money.
I would save at least 3 months worth of living expsenese
write it all out, estimate your rent cost, look at apartments.com, etc, to get an idea.
Then estimate food cost (add an extra 50$ to what u spend on groceries in detroit)

also go to yahoo.com and type in "Cost of living calculator" and it will show you how much u will need to live out here compared to Detroit.

Do it, Chicago is the greatest city in the world.
Whatever it takes to get out of Detroit is worth doing. Sell your kidney if you have to just get out of there while you still can!
