I am financially far better off single. I dont drink, smoke or drive and although MrJudi doesnt drink, the 'tank' he drives round in does only 22 to the gallon and we have had 3 brand new motors in 2 years! He also smokes 20 a day.
Good job its his money he is wasting and not mine.This is a system account and does not represent a real person. To contact the Forum Team email forumteam@moneysavingexpert.com0 -

If you don't get on with that tidying up and stop wasting money your wish might be granted!I started with nothing and I am proud to say I still have most of it left.0 -

I'm totally with you on that as you can see in my sig I have given up smoking for over 3 weeks now. My ex smoked around 15 a day. I used to drink 4 or 5 times a week now I go to the pub twice a month when there is a live band on. My ex drives and that used to cost me loads, I since moved closer to work and I walk every day and take in my own lunch. (Well apart from Fridays when we all get Chinese I can't resist)
Over every fortnight I spend a maximum £80 including a night in the rub a dub:beer:, tescos and the occasional stroll into town.0 -
