My mum wants to move in with her boyfriend but doesn't want to pay for a house that shes not using. I understand where she's coming from. I'm old enough to move out and i don't want to hold her back from doing what she wants, but i'm a pissed still. See i'm in full time education in college studying computer engineering. been at college now for two years. Now i was thinking of leaving but decided not too because of the recession, there's just not many jobs avaliable. What i ain't happy about is the fact that i'm still in college, and skint being a student. I could probably find a part time job and earn more whilst being at college but after working it out. It's not going to be enough.
A shitty, flat will cost around £350 a month, plus around £150 in electric, gass, water and tax etc. This doesn't include any money for food or anything else, just the running cost of the house.
for a decent house it would cost around £550 a month, a lot more if i want a nice house, a house would cost more in gas and probably electric, costing around £200 in bills a month.
Now i don't have a vehicle, so i'd need to pay for travel to and from work. This will cost about £50 a month, and for food, lets say £100 a month to spend?
I'm going to need to make at least £650 a month, just to keep a small shitty flat running, pay for food and travel, and £900 for a house.
See, this is where i start getting worried. That's an awfull lot of money. Money which i don't have. I'd definatly have to quit my education and get any job i can find, and work work work to pay of the bills.
Just fucking sucks. I've got till the new year to sort something though. Hardly anything but least i've got some time. I'm thinking perhaps i can get a housemate, but i have my doubts. why couldn't my mum just wait till i've finished college and i'm financial stable in a decent job?
anyway, just needed to vent.
