    Just re read his £7k loan thread, 25k to go travelling, where you going traveling ? The "I promise to fleece you for 25k with the premise of visiting various countries" holiday company.

    The payments would be £350 a month over 7 years roughly 5 grand would be in the bank to cover the loan in the year I'm going away

    Think it's stupi or?

    The way I see it is your only youn once... I want to see the world and the job I'm doing in England I could get payed $21 an hour in Australia an make $000's commission.

    I wouldn't work when I'm travelling but I'd give it ago if spent up.



    I hear you can get a free holidays all over the world just for bringing peoples suitcases back for them - that might be worth investigating.

    Not necessarily - just a dreamer with his head in the clouds, and a totally unrealistic take on loans. Maybe many of us were a bit like that when we were young.
    I used to think that good grammar is important, but now I know that good wine is importanter.

    Well that would be a damn good excuse not to pay your loans back I guess..
