I'm a student living off student loans so I'm not exactly leading a glamorous lifestyle at the moment haha. I'm in law school and I'm saving to do my masters- won't get much from student finance for that and I'm in London so just being able to afford to live is gonna be difficult, let alone the £18,000 the masters will cost...

Other than that I'm not really saving, I probably should be thinking about saving for after graduation more in case I can't get a job right away. Meh :(

I am spending my money on my education. I get screwed over on financial aid. My parents make too much for me to qualify for aid, but not enough to contribute significantly. I don't qualify for any scholarships, since I'm too average. So I am working my way through college and likely taking out private loans. I go to a state school, so at least I won't be in too much debt. But on campus housing is ridiculously expensive. I'm paying $700 a month to live in the dorms. It's cheaper to live off campus. I don't have a car or loans or a credit card (Though a lot of people are telling me to get one and just use it for groceries to build up credit.), so I'm currently not paying off any debt.
