iansheff 86 #1 Posted November 18, 2018 Well I just read about a 30 year old woman who earns £30 - £40,000 a year and asks her parents for handouts up to £500 a month to help her get by. How can someone who still lives at home be struggling on that salary? https://uk.finance.yahoo.com/news/money-expert-defends-spending-habits-073606086.html Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

Top Cats Hat 10 #3 Posted November 18, 2018 A big mortgage, massive coke habit, a big debt from her past, uninsured medical costs from a trip to america? Lots of reasons! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
tinfoilhat 11 #4 Posted November 18, 2018 Very easy to poke fun at this woman but without knowing her current out-goings and previous situation (if applicable) then it's pointless. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
Mister M 1,609 #5 Posted November 18, 2018 Although it's brave of her to be so honest about her situation, especially in this climate; I bet she gets a lot of flak online.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
Waldo 96 #6 Posted November 18, 2018 Bloom in' heck, her salary doesn't cover the basics! I'd be interested to know what her concept of 'the basics' is. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
helloitsonly 10 #7 Posted November 18, 2018 Very easy to poke fun at this woman but without knowing her current out-goings and previous situation (if applicable) then it's pointless. very easy and very justified, silly women obviously has no concept of money, she lives with parents and what does she drive?? Aston Martin? we dont know but anyone who gets themselves into that sort of predicament deserves nothing more than ridicule.

iansheff 86 #8 Posted November 18, 2018 A big mortgage, massive coke habit, a big debt from her past, uninsured medical costs from a trip to america? Lots of reasons! As she lives at home with her parents I doubt she has a mortgage. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

Cyclone 10 #11 Posted November 20, 2018 She lives with her parents, but she might pay them rent. Without any indication of her outgoings it's impossible to judge, but on the face of it she sounds totally ridiculous. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
geared 303 #12 Posted November 20, 2018 It we be quite a silly situation if she paid her parents rent at the start of the month only to borrow five hundred quid off them because she's skint at the end of the month. No mention of big outgoings or previous problems, one can only assume she's utterly terrible with money. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
