    I think this is a wind up, nobody is that naive in real life.

    Debatable...

    I'm not going out of my way to denigrate the OP but I am going to be very critical about their grammar, mistaking "of" for "have" and "your" for "you're" actually makes me cringe a bit.

    I think the OP wants a quick escape from reality due to their inability to function in the working world. Completely ignorant to how things work the OP wants someone to feed them money from a silver spoon so that they can disappear in search of a way to make life easier.

    Going travelling is an adventure that people only deserve once they have worked for it.

    Which is why - I'm out.

    Hi benchy

    Have you thought about working abroad. ?


    http://www.bunac.org/

    I was going to suggest this. Get a job abroad, and then use the money you earn there to move on somewhere else at the end of the season. I worked one summer a couple of years ago for the company that runs Eurocamp and Keycamp, and lots of the people I worked with alternated between working for that kind of company in the summer seasons, and winter sports companies over the winter. You can save a surprising amount of money doing this, as accommodation is generally provided, so outgoings are very low, so you could do it for a year or so and then you would be free to travel where you like.

    I don't think you understand I'm not using it to go on holiday, I will go to a country and work you RETARD! Mate I know more about money then you think I have a full time job and I see hardly any of that money because I have bill's to pay like the rest of the people in this world. I don't even know why I'm arguing with you stuck up loser's for people. You don't fully understand my reason's for wanting to move away so quickly. So there'e no point asking for help anymore.

    You didnt fully explain your reasons, other than you are going nowhere in life (you are only 18) and want to discover what you want to do with your life.

    But no matter whether you have the best reasons in the world why you need to go I am sure none of them will be good enough for the banks to loan you the money you [STRIKE]need[/STRIKE] want to do so.

    I don't know thats why I asked, if I knew the answer to my question I wouldn't of asked would I. There could of been a special loan for travlers I don't know because I don't work at a bank.

    So all you people trying to make me look stupid and make yourself look like the clever adult, IT'S NOT WORKING !!!

    to try to make something of yourself by firstly going back and doing your GCSE English exam...

    also when you are researching something like this, take the advice you are given!

    or even try Camp America. you only need to raise a small amount of money in comparison and get a worthwhile experience which employers will look favourably on in the future, which you seem to say is your ultimate goal.

Mate I know more about money then you think (No comma, again?!) I have a full time job and I see hardly any of that money because I have bill's to pay like the rest of the people in this world. I don't even know why I'm arguing with you stuck up loser's for people. You don't fully understand my reason's for wanting to move away so quickly. So there'e (Granted that this looks more like a typo, so is somewhat excusable.) no point asking for help anymore.

    1. We are helping, you just don't understand it yet.

    2. Well done for having a job, I'm surprised.

    3. You originally said that you want to travel to the other side of the world for a year, not that you wanted to work abroad, we were only lead to assume that the loan was to cover expenses and living costs for that year.

    :rotfl: Maybe the OP can answer your 2 grammatical problems?
