His version of budgeting for it at the time included larger credit card payments then he has now (he got a loan to clear one card and buy the car - 2nd hand one) so between that and him always buying games and dvds apparently that was all he could afford this time last year.
Now,
his card payments are less
He's subscribed to Lovefilm
I've reduced the Gas, Electric and Broadband bills
and we've cut right down on Asda shopping
And...
He's just gotten a £500p/a pay rise with another due after Xmas.....
He really should be able to cover another £50p/m, if not £100... (another £70 is what is actually needed).
He earns about £6k more than me so this is really not fair.
Just need some calm, not wound up by his work, time to go over all this and get him to show me his CC statements (I've looked but need to have him show me himself iykwim) and see what we can do about his debts.
I was gonna say we'd gone right off topic but the title is 'a bit of everything' isn't it?
