It's hell being posh but poor
« on: April 13, 2013, 06:31:55 PM »
"Petronella Wyatt has sold her pearls and given up dining at the Ritz in Chanel suits because, like her friends in the 'Broke Generation', she says you just can't live on six-figures."

Apparently she was being wined and dined by her new boyfriend when he found he couldn't pay the £120 bill - he only earned £80,000 a year...

I started out with nothing and I've still got most of it left.

We've just come back from a 2 week AI holiday on the Costa Del Sol, we visited Puerto Banus, and dined in McDonalds  :P
We don't live beyond our means. Worked it out earlier, we actually spent about £250 in a fortnight  :))
Bus and train fares mostly, public transport.

It's what 'we' do for a living  ;)

That's a lovely thought OC, I think we should. Our_Lass would love another holiday later in the year funded by donations  8)
