Reading this thread makes me realise why i never had any money despite having a relatively good job. I dont think i can work out how much i spent apart from everything that i had spare! I used to start the month on vodka and end it on the cheapest muck i could find, when you take into account extra cigarettes, take aways and various other crap that seemed like a good idea at the time its a wonder i didnt end up on the street.
