How much should I spend/budget per month?

I am currently an international student living in halls as a first year. So far this month, i have spent around £167. My monthly budget is £600 (excluding rent, and transport in the city is free [uni of soton]) , but I don’t want to be a reckless spender. Am I spending too much or the right amount? Or am I overthinking it?
£600 seems a reasonable budget. As a guide your spending shouldn’t be more than what your monthly income is.

Hmm okay, thank you! I was worried if I was spending a lot :frown:
