And yet I somehow got by on a student stipend of £13k, although I didn't have to pay council tax. Still managed to pay my student loan off, tho.

Nor smoke. But I used to eat about twice as much as other people and not put weight on! Food used to cost a fortune. Thankfully my metabolism has slowed down to a more normal rate.

If I were to get a 1 bed apartment, to just get by (which includes everything I need to life, bar 'going out') I need £1304.58pm. Hopefully less if I share rent.
