Job woes...

[devils_fuel]

Shit me your struggling on 25k a year :/ hows this possible? I know your down south but are prices really that bad?
I know its none of my buisness but what bills do you have going out couldn't yu cut them down a little

I know right? I thought as much, life shouldn't be this tough, I know the national average is something like 26.5k, but monthly outgoings are sky high!

On 25k the monthly take-home after tax / NI is ~ 1640. I have the following outgoings which can't be helped -
Rent - 715
Cncl Tax - 129
Leccy bill - 95 (pay quarterly)
Phone / internet bill - 30
Mobile x 2 @ 20 each - 40 (this is pissing cheap for 2 contracts!)
Car ins. - 55
Credit cards - 70ish (this is minimum payment, interest free!)

Adding it all up and thinking "heh, there's still 500 quid in the kitty" but this has to pay for shopping, fuel, car maintenance etc. It's not like we live in luxury either, we make a lot of meals ourselves and Florences' food is home-made, not those expensive jars / pots / pouches.

Life, eh?

Me and my partner earn your wages, we have a kid thats 3 and your bills are cheaper than ours...i have no hair left from pulling it out the day after payday! we struggle to eat
I need another job but time with charlie is gold...so i struggle on as thats all that keeps me going. I will be fecked if the car needs work or to be replaced
