I heard of someone who spent their student loan on a speedboat, then got scurvy because they could only afford to eat tesco own brand instant noodles.

Givenchy Antigona Medium Leather Tote - £1,300 that would be my bizzare choice.
But obviously I'm smarter than that!

I was obsessed with that bag for a while until I realised how basic it looks considering how expensive it is! It's all about Balenciaga baby (Proenza Schouler is nice too).

I saved up my bursaries and scholarship money to pay for a part-time masters which I would never have been able to do otherwise.

I spent my student loan properly... I also managed to make some money from what is essentially a 0% loan

I managed to sort myself out in my final year but in first year I managed to get all the way through into my max overdraft... I've definitely learnt more from uni that just about my degree course subject. :'P
