@idthemoneyman: £2,800 take-home pay. £60 left. Is that a decent income in the UK? On paper, it might sound like enough. Then you pay for your life. £1,000 on rent. Bills. Food. Insurance. Everything else that needs paying. And that £2,800 becomes £60. £60 between you and the next payday. Then someone tells you to “just budget better”. Budgeting matters. But if the essentials leave you with almost nothing, a spreadsheet can only do so much. We need to stop talking about a decent income without talking about what it actually covers. How much breathing room does £60 really buy you? #moneymoneymoney #retirementplanning #financialplanning #fintok #financialfreedom
if your working why shouldn't you be able to eat out it's a treat. people on benefits don't have to worry about rent cos if there sick it's paid for them,if you work and are sick your not paying your rent cos you don't get paid

It’s £60 but that’s bc your spending £400 on shopping. No need for that. Reduce by £200 and you’ll have £260 £450 for food? Is that fir a family or just one ? If one £350 is a budget to work with and save the £100 or add it to your pension

£60/month, presumably to save!? I was married at 21, divorced at 45. brought up 2 children in my own mortgaged home and NEVER had £60/month SPARE CASH! In fact, worked 2, sometimes 3 jobs AND wife had a part-time job - we NEVER ate out regularly!
