Dharka is a 22 year-old single male who is attending community college in a city that is 100 km from his parents' home. Dharka received an OSAP loan of $6800 to attend college and his parents give him an allowance of $100 per week while he is attending school. Dharka works in the summer to earn money to help pay for his education. Last summer Dharka saved $3250 from his summer job. His tuition fees are $3000 for the school year and his residence/dining hall fees are $5200. Books and other supplies cost $950. Dharka can walk to all classes, the library and to the dining hall from his residence building. Dharka is a very conscientious student who works in the campus library most evenings and on weekends. However, Dharka misses his mother's traditional cooking and his younger brothers and sisters so Dharka tries to go home for one weekend each month. The return bus ticket costs him $38.00 (student rate). Dharka has an aunt and uncle who live just outside of the city where he goes to school. He visits them at least once a week to share a meal and to get his laundry done at the same time. Dharka must take a cab to visit these relatives since the city bus does not travel there. The taxi ride there and back costs $17.00. Dharka is also an active member of the Environmental Team at his college. He donates $10 each week to help to publicize ways that students can help the environment while they are at the college. Dharka is a real music fan and he likes to purchase traditional music from his parents' homeland whenever he finds CDs on sale so he tries to budget some money each week to build his music collection.
