Im planning on going to thailand next year and i need save up money, depending on how quick i can save it up the quicker i can go.
I earn about £200 a week, heres my outgoings:
£40 a week rent
£35 every two weeks taken out
£20 a week motorbike lessons
£5 a month petrol
£35 a month gym
So its a bout £80ish pounds a week, which aint much at all. So that leaves me with about £120 a week, i usually spend about £50 a week on dvd/games and the rest i save. But for the last couple months ive been spending quite a bit. I bought a motorbike about a month ago for £1200 then the insurance that was £400 odd so that zapped my money down. Now its xmas ive been buying presents for everyone and still got quite a few people to do. Plus with my spending on material stuff, like today i spent £130 on dvds and games
My outgoings is pretty accurate as there aint anything else, i dont drink or smoke so thats saving me a lot of money. I consider myself quite disciplined in other areas of my life like im careful about what i eat, i go gym three times a week and i never miss a session because i cant be assed. So i know i can save, but for some reason every time as it nears xmas i treat myself a bit more that i usually do, and of course presents for my family, so it builds up.
Anyway i would love some advice, i aint got a deadline on when i want to go to thailand but i would like to go ASAP maybe about march/april.
