Best bit of advice given to me when I was a youngster just starting to work, was from my aunty. She told me to always have an emergency fund of at least 3 months wages (easier said than done these days I know), but it’s always stood me well. It’s saved me a few times when I lost my job over the years. It gives you enough time to get your head together and look for another job. Have a fab Christmas and look after yourself! X

Great advice. They now say 6 months but literally anything is good if you're strapped for cash. I squirrel away every penny because you never know.

So glad that the support has lifted your spirits and given you some breathing space. Wind down with family time for Christmas if you can and hopefully the new year will change for the better. Life can change on an instant for anyone, it did for me when I was told that I will be homeless, just after I had sold my van. A lucky break happened at the last moment, so I have a place to live.

Unfortunately savings are a necessity these days. You need to learn to budget. It can be tough but it can be a lifesaver at times. People call them sinking funds. I don't consider them savings. I just put away for the things know I will need. Don't wait until you are older like me to have to learn to budget. Glad to see you much more upbeat. I hope you have a great Xmas and things will pick up for you after the holidays.
