My plan for money

My parents are somewhat rich so I only qualify for the minimum maintenance loan, but they don't want to give me any money for living costs because they'd rather go on a second holiday every year (fair nuff). My plan to not starve:
> Get a boyfriend or girlfriend
> Convince them to go to the same uni as me
> Move in together in the cheapest one-person student accommodation with an ensuite bathroom we can find (at most unis this is around 170 quid/week, so if we split costs equally it's 85pppw)
> Use the remaining 2 pounds left over from my maintence loan, plus money selling feet pics, for food

It’s a great plan, even better if you can find a well to do bf/gf who’s parents buy them a posh victorian terrance in a leafy part of town, which you can share together. How much do you reckon you can make from your feet

Not a lot (I assume the feet pic market is very oversaturated at this point) but since the maintenance loan will cover accommodation and wifi I only need a hundred or so a month for food etc. I manage to sell 2-3 pics a week for 15 quid each and I’ll have more than enough

"A hundred or so a month" is £3.25-or-so a day, so you'll need to set your food budget accordingly (and I suggest that £3.25 a day for food might be a bit of a struggle).
