Uni advice- jobs and finance

In first year I didn't have a job and my student finance, along with my pocket money was just about enough to live on. I would say once you get paid your student finance pay for your rent straight away and then what ever is left divide between the number of months until you get your next student finance. Then only put the money for this month in the current account and put everything else into your savings account. if you can practice disclipline then you should never have no money at all.

Of course there are always moments when it's like you only have £20 left in your account and you have to decide between eating that week or going to a motive- I always picked going to the motive -

I Dare You: GETTING TASED! (ft. Timothy Delaghetto & Anna Akana) - NigaHiga

Image
Summary: NigaHiga is back at it again with another I Dare You video featuring the hilarious and talented Timothy Delaghetto and Anna Akana, as well as the usual gang whose names I've now realised I don't actually know. awkward.... This video is a part of a series that NigaHiga has created which shows him and a group of people doing all sorts of crazy dares and challenges (the kind they tell you not to try at home) all to win a coveted spot for their name on the ball of lame. // Side note: the ball of lame is basically a ball of tinfoil that they write their names on// Unfortunately this video didn't stick out as being one of the greatest in the series and it didn't even make me laugh out loud once. Yet it does still do it's best to try to be entertaining. I'm starting to wonder if the appeal of the series is starting to wear off especially since Youtube is a place where you can see hundreds if not thousands of videos of people humiliating themselves an...

Making something of yourself

Uni is a unique time when you are surrounded by like minded individuals who all want to make something of their life. So naturally you'll see a lot of people having businesses, being athletes, aspiring singers, models etc and in this midst of so much success it can be disheartening in a way. Everyone appears to be flourishing and getting exciting new opportunities and if you haven't found your thing yet it can seem like you're falling behind the crowd. To this I say don't worry, a key part of uni and transitioning into adulthood is learning more about yourself and what you want for your future. It's a time to gain ideas from people and meet potential collaborators but it is also a good time to try out different things, pursue something that scares you because even if you fail at it, you have time to recover. I know what it's like to look at your peers and feel like you're not doing anything or to look at them doing well in something your interested i...

Speaking wealth into your life

Many people spend thousands of pounds every year on going to wealth conferences but luckily for you I'm going to explain one of their most taught processes that helps aid you in becoming wealthy. It is called speaking wealth into your life or a mantra and I will be sharing a few of the benefits of having one. A mantra is simply a few statements that you recite every morning when you wake up that helps put you in the right a frame of mind. (I will be talking about how the way you think about money influences the amount you will get next week, so be looking out for that). It is almost like a reminder of what you want to achieve. Writing a mantra is quite easy but first you have to identify which financial goals you want to achieve. If you want to be financially free then a mantra you could say is "I am financially free and I have no debts" . By saying this every morning it helps you to truly believe it and get more into the rich person mindset. It can also inspire you ...
