I'm not entirely sure that I have posted on the correct thread(so apologies if I haven't!)

I was wondering how much disposable income everyone has per month?I have £400 after paying off my loans,bills etc.I'm not sure this will stretch.Any suggestions?

Thanks in advance

    That depends on what you count as disposable and what you count as bills, if you have taken into account everything you can't avoid spending as bills (such as food and fuel for your car) and not just bills like gas, electricity, credit cards etc you should be able to make it stretch with some self discipline. Otherwise you may need to work out how to cut back on your outgoings. They are the only answers to not spending more than you earn.
    If you don't like what I say slap me around with a large trout and PM me to tell me why.
