    A student brings in about £4000 so it is good money.....but even that just brings the DFD forward by 6 weeks, so in the grand scheme of things it is not ultimately going to make a huge amount of difference.

    That's the problem when you owe such big sums of money - even having good amounts coming in doesn't make a huge difference!!


    but it your OH does lose his job then this money would be invaluable wouldn't it? When do you have to make the decision about the student?

    I want a job that is less than an hour driving away from my house! Are you listening universe?
