Welcome to the UK, where everyone seems to be earning money and nobody seems to have any.
A return train ticket costs the same as a mini break abroad.
A food shop requires a small loan.
Rent rises every year. Bills rise every year. Insurance rises every year.
The only thing that doesn't seem to rise is your wage.
People are working full-time, doing overtime and picking up side hustles, yet still checking their bank balance before buying absolutely anything.
This is supposed to be one of the richest countries in the world.
So why does surviving here feel like a full time job on its own?
