I actually wanted to get someone's opinion on that.
I will be starting a grad job in a month's time at £25K/yr. It'll be in a different city to where I am now. I am currently looking for accommodation, and can't decide on whether to go for shared or my own place. These are my thoughts about the both:
* Shared: ++ Can save up and pay back my loans quicker (my debt isn't from SFE, it's from parents). But main point is socially, I don't know anyone yet in the area I will be moving to, so it could potentially get pretty lonely, especially in the weekend. I've enjoyed communal living through out uni because I can get up to stuff with flatmates...etc.
* Own place: ++ Main point is own privacy and comfort.
So not sure what to go for?
