We currently have no cash to splash, two full time students and one salary to support them! Should ease off a) when the Motorsport season starts so I get done regular photography work and b) when I finish the Access course and start Uni proper, so I get grants and loans.

The government says we are all better off now and have more available cash.

Just for the hell of it..... rather than opting for a Quantitative easing policy our government might stand a better chance of stimulating growth in our economy by issuing each person in the country with a one-off sum of newly printed money that can only be spent on British made goods and must be spent within a limited time frame.

That seems the best way to use QE to me. If you're going to make up money then spread it around. It doesn't matter what people do with it as it will do SOMETHING.

Yuuupp! Currently saving minimum £400/500 a month from not smoking..(currently 8 months).

At least £200 a month from not buying stuff we saw on offer everytime we bought cigarettes.

So yeah we have plenty to flutter should we feel the need. Feels good.

That's brilliant. I don't think I'll see quite that saving if I give up chocolate though.

I have 14 months left on my mortgage so I am looking forward to having that money to spend.

i am better off since this government came in than when the last were in, fact.

even though im not rich by any means, i usually have money left over by the time i get paid again.

in the last 12 months i have landscaped my garden

got ahead with all my bills

bought a new motorbike (new to me not brand new)

got a jacuzzi (blow up not proper one)

and have just negotiated a price for some custom parts for the bike, not to mention managed to pay pretty much all the money i owed from borrowing when i was struggling.

next thing will be a newer car, but that wont be for a while as i will save back up for it

so things are ok for me.

i feel for those that are on benefits though, as its never good to have something taken away that you have come to rely on

It will be a good feeling.

My car finance finishes in march this year too.

Nice to have money for a rainy day after years of struggling

now stop it with that common sense type thinking..

surely its better to have it sat in the banks as a cushion which may enable them to carry on their casino style antics and raking in big fuck off bonuses..?

I did! It was great. I had to put it off for a week whilst I had a new card sent out following that attempted fraud thingy, but tonight I shall be going out with a new lot on and all matched up

AND Trent buses didn't run a special coach with everyone I have ever known to that branch of Boots, either

paid ours off last year, not down to anything other than overpaying to get rid of it..

that did mean cutting back on big holidays etc but worth it..

Would love to say I won a lump sum but I didn't. Just with planning

My aim was by the time I was 40 but didn't quite make it

Obviously we do, the Govt only borrowed a further £12bn plus in December alone.

yes but your not far off which is good..

nor us tbh, my mum instilled in us that if you cant afford it you either save or go without..

end of the day being fortunate to be well enough to keep earning etc is a bit of a lottery..

Absolutely no better off, I and everyone I know is much worse off. This is just propaganda tactics, learned from wars, to keep paying something so often that some people believe it. Honestly, we know costs have risen massively and earnings have not, or have fallen. The facts scream that it is a load of bollocks. Expect to hear more of this crap, leading up to the elections.

Financially I'm frequenting the overdraft too often. Anyone who thinks everyone on benefits is living the good life should come see me having to budget for the coming month, every penny is accounted for. I pay the bills, buy food, pay rent and council tax, and if I'm really good, I can save about £2 a week so we can have a take out treat every other month. Holidays and Christmas/Birthday gifts are just distant memories
