Stop spending it on clothe then and u will have more money left. It aint the end of the world to not buy a new item of clothing every week
I only have about £40 a week to live on with having to use the bus and also do the food shopping and nappies etc, and most the time I have to go without the luxuries of buying a new top/jeans whatever. Im not complaining though.
God help u when u move out of your house and in the real world on your own, then you will be in trouble. Water, electiricty, phonebill, mortgage/rent, council tax, food shopping etc

I was looking in hull for a house last september with a mate, looked at houses, and some where a right mess and didnt want to move on to a rough estate, leave brid and get a job in hull. Then only me and me mate would only need to use one car, but decided not to. But actually moving help might help, as you have to look after your money a lot more. Because at the moment i rely on me mum and dad for help to borrow money. Which i dont like doing really.

Well if u have no money atm how can u get a house? If renting u need normally at least a months rent in advance and alot of houses are non-furnished so need furntiure, food etc.

Just dont ask your parents for cash and spend only what you earn, i can remember when i spent about 3x more than i had earned in the month but luckily I had the cash to spare

I save money on fashionable jeans. I got a pair of trendy faded ones just by wearing the same pair all the time
Thats when you know you have a mortgage

Yup!
If going to do it best to have quite alot of money behind u for things like this. Always more bills when u first move into a house though. Then u just need to get used to how little money u are left with once u put aside money when u get paid for your bills!
