islandgun Posted July 18, 2016 Report Share Posted July 18, 2016 ...well you get used to it eventually mate have look at your life ! do you like toffee onion enough to save a few pence, onion is a wonderful fruit but it belongs in a hot dog (lightly fried) or as a base in a curry, make savings in other areas like buying a house really cheap and decorate then sell it on, lots of info on the buy really cheap house and decorate channel, (pre brexit) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oxfordshooter Posted July 18, 2016 Report Share Posted July 18, 2016 Forget savings accounts and ISAs, they're really not worth the effort as the returns are so low at the moment. Unless you're a gambler by nature or really know what you're doing then forget shares and precious metals as you might get your fingers burnt. Its easy to make way some household economies by switching to a no frills supermarket and just generally buying less tat, coffees and the latest gadgets etc. If you like a beer then take up homebrewing, once you've bought the basic kit then it's great value to make your own. I've saved £££'s over the years by doing this and honestly one of the finest feelings a man can have is walking out to his shed and finding a 40 pint barrel there.

mattyg1086 Posted July 18, 2016 Author Report Share Posted July 18, 2016 Nothing wrong with a lunch you make yourself, many times better than some of the ready made options. Blackpowder Oh I agree I always make my own food I often don't even take my wallet to work unless I need to fill my car up but I wanted suggestions from people not people saying make your own food instead of buying it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lloyd90 Posted July 18, 2016 Report Share Posted July 18, 2016 Invest in property. If you can't afford another property of your own look at something like this https://propertypartner.co If it's for rental the potential changes to the buy to let market will kill it I think, at least for buy to let landlords with a mortgage! Charging tax on full rental income and no longer allowing mortgage interest to count as a tax write off is a big hit. Landlords who own lots of property out right and are filthy rich will be unaffected. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Del T Posted July 18, 2016 Report Share Posted July 18, 2016 (edited) Classic cars, limited editions,80s and 90s cars like the escort rs turbo,escort cosworth ,tommi mak evo 6. Or classic 80s 90s icon bikes Rc30s rg500s etc etc. If I had somewhere to keep them that's where my money would be going.

four-wheel-drive Posted July 18, 2016 Report Share Posted July 18, 2016 It is hard to try to advise other people as as we do not no what money you have or what you spend your money on as we see on TV some people earn good money but spend it on stupid things so never have any left over at the end of the week while other people earn little money yet manage to have a good standard of living.
