    about £50 but i'v got £600 in cash cus I get my money from work in cash. I'm really unhappy with that, i'm 21 but I havn't been to work in over a month . I need thousands of pounds by the August.
    Why do you "need" thousands by then?

    I did have around £500 in my paypal account a couple of weeks ago from my ebay business I started around 6 weeks ago, and just over £250 in bank account, but I had to pay my holiday off which was just over £400 and I owed £200 out so I had £150 left, which I used to replenish stock in my Ebay dealings. So I have about £15 left at the moment to last me a week or 2, which is my own fault for not replenishing stock early enough, so I have no current income. Live and learn I guess :rolleyes:

    Oh and I'm suppose to be starting a part time job anytime now, but currently waiting on an induction day! It's also paid weekly which is good to help along with the business. Could have done with putting a few hours in this week :unimpressed:

    Aiming for a couple of grand for a car and spending money for holiday by mid June ish , I tend to perform when I'm desperate, which is why I've told my parents not to lend me money what so ever although they offer.

    At the moment i've got £9100 in my savings account and around £100 in my current accounts but i've got £200 locked away in accomodation deposit which i should get back in October. So in total, i have around £9400 at the moment, but my target is to hit around £10,600 in the summer before i lock my money away into a fixed savings account until i graduate from Uni...

    Around 2000, of which 1800 are my savings and 200 'need' to get me to the end of the month. My current goal is to save it back to 2000 in my savings

    I'm not quite sure of an exact figure but the fact I just filled my car up with £7.50 worth of petrol says enough.

    Till Attendant: "Pump number?"
    Me: "2"
    Till Attendant: (sneer) "£7.50 please"
    Me: (grimace)

    -£568

    £68 overdrawn so will get a charge for that however i do get £2200 tommorow.

    Looking ahead, i figure i can save anything i get above £500 per month this summer from a job and next year at uni i can save £500 from my student loans and anything i can get from a part time job.

    So nothing now but this time next year i hope to have at least £2k.
