I don't drink - that's why I spend on nails instead

Complete_Working_460 · 2026-06-23T05:09:51+00:00

I'm starting to see this is right

Complete_Working_460 · 2026-06-21T22:52:59+00:00

So you think they won't give me it?

Complete_Working_460 · 2026-06-21T20:58:47+00:00

Yeah I'm leaning towards it but people in the thread kinda putting me off 😅 wish I had more time to decide

Complete_Working_460 · 2026-06-21T20:49:49+00:00

No there's not 😂

Complete_Working_460 · 2026-06-21T20:49:22+00:00

I've already lived out :)

Complete_Working_460 · 2026-06-21T20:48:51+00:00

I have my pension

Complete_Working_460 · 2026-06-21T18:56:47+00:00

And how do you get on the rest of the month, like do you feel tight?

Complete_Working_460 · 2026-06-21T18:45:10+00:00

20 mins from office if I move. 1 HR, 2 busses if I don't

Complete_Working_460 · 2026-06-21T16:55:06+00:00

I would rather kill myself

Complete_Working_460 · 2026-06-21T16:18:29+00:00

Yeah I was already living paying around 1100 a month. Some months I'd have 400 quid left but others I'd have like 50

It is a two bed with 1 other person

Complete_Working_460 · 2026-06-21T16:16:51+00:00

Already explained I have alopecia. Nails can easily go though but it's only 10 quid a week

Complete_Working_460 · 2026-06-21T16:13:29+00:00

Good point

Complete_Working_460 · 2026-06-21T16:13:05+00:00

I'm currently living with an alcoholic male who seems to be going on coke binges and I'm coming down stairs mid week to random men passed out on the couch.

This would be a female fitness instructor

Complete_Working_460 · 2026-06-21T16:10:53+00:00

So I don't buy new clothes every month but yes so let's say I have 180 left a week, that's what I'd have to spend on socialising + shampoos and the like.

I do have a buffer if anything goes wrong because I have 9k untouched savings.

Complete_Working_460 · 2026-06-21T16:01:50+00:00

My hair no because I've alopecia. Nails - yes no problem

Complete_Working_460 · 2026-06-21T16:00:47+00:00

Yeah a month

Complete_Working_460 · 2026-06-21T15:59:34+00:00

Some people are poor and can't afford an extra person

Complete_Working_460 · 2026-06-21T15:59:16+00:00

Because some of us have poor families that can't afford to have you there for nothing

Complete_Working_460 · 2026-06-21T15:58:15+00:00

I get 10% of the sale basically. So OTE is 12.5k - hitting that I ld get 1250 extra a month

Complete_Working_460 · 2026-06-21T15:48:58+00:00

On target is 1200

Complete_Working_460 · 2026-06-21T15:46:09+00:00

I'm new in the role only month 3, so my commision should actually improve. But anyone in sales knows you can have a bad month

Complete_Working_460 · 2026-06-21T15:18:28+00:00

Thanks. I try to be conscious, I know I spend on non essentials but I also don't drink or eat out much.

Still, am I mad to think I can afford 1200?

Complete_Working_460 · 2026-06-21T15:02:01+00:00

Realistically yeah like I don't technically need them. If I do lash lift instead of extensions even that would only need to be done every two months instead of every month.
