Anybody spending money at the moment
 

Is anybody out there in a position to spend money at the moment, still splashing out on cars, bikes holidays and luxuries or you all tightening your belt and not spending more than a tenner:cry: Fair play if you are as your helping the economy:top:

Ive seen loads more cars for sale at the side of the road on my travels, I cant help thinking that more people are feeling the pinch?

Holiday to Thailand, lot of money :cry::wall:

Been thinking about this alot, ive recently finished education and moved into FT work, so my wage is 3x what it was this time last year, so yes, i am spending like fuck just now :cry:

Just been and blew £2k+ in Ibiza, £££'s on clothes before i went too and going down to TOTB in the morning, will be buying a new car in the next month or so aswell. Fuck the credit crunch, i work to be able to afford to do the things i want to do.

If or when the time comes where i am living paycheck to paycheck then yes, i probably will hold up on the luxuries to help myself get on top of my finances again, at the moment though, im doing fine.

This credit crunch thing doesn't seem to exist as my customers are spending more than ever, I have more and more customers coming on the scene every week and they are more interested in when the can have the parts rather that how much they will cost!!

credit crunch not affected me at the moment.

still spending as much as i wouldve been.

same here

only problem i have, is finding places that sell the parts i want :wall::wall::wall:

Not effected me yet - touch wood it stays like that! lol

i've never lived beyond my means

got plenty of cash, good job, etc, etc

the only thing that i'm spending omney on now is clothes for the baby and saving the rest seeing as i've bought eveything i need to own and i've got nothing more to spen my money on :)

i'm still spending.:cry:

yeh im still spending aswell

well I was in a meeting at work on friday to be told we have lost 40 million quid:shocked: so far this year on our site, due to the downturn in the chemical industry in general and the high cost of fuel/energy, our site is now spending 5 million a month on the leccy bill!!!!:shocked::shocked:

2 plants are closing before the end of the year and 180 jobs are to go but i'm ok for the moment..

Well yes and no. It has affected me, beacuse i want to get my first house! And that has had a negative impact on mortgages and postive impact on house prices......

not botherd me to be honest i'm building a new house 5/6 bed on 3.5 acres, 11 by 5 mtr pool a 25 by 15 mtr garage to play in plus we can still save a couple of grand a month so looking at buying another house don't you just love australia, stuff the uk you can keep it :cry::cry:

I work for a builders merchants and we are busy as ever so I don't see it affecting me much, I get paid more than most of my mates and i can handle my bills, best of all is I got a couple of backup jobs anyway :top:
If it goes tits up I'll go to uni

:cry::cry:

god my wifes understanding

Your kids will be so proud of you.

Its got me :(

I Run a team of window blind fitters, But all the companys we do it for are just not getting the work in!

things ain't too bad for me, although I am in the process of moving on from the family business, so likely to feel the pinch shortly, thats nothing to do with the credit crunch thou tbh. Also have had a flat on the market for over a year now and its just not selling! Have tenents in paying the morgage thou, so not all bad.

Getting married in 2 months, so thats my own personal credit crunch..... :cry:
I don't think things are that bad at the moment but i do see it getting worse with the reported hikes in gas/electric bills, and I filled up my 1.2 fiat Punto the other day, it cost me £50 from empty, never been as much as that, it usually lasts me a month though so can't complain really.

What a lovely life your daughter will have. A mum who's mouth is always full of someone else's cock and a dad who is proud to admit drug abuse :roll:

Im still spending bought a new house & doing it up top to bottom,Although i have spent over 20k now & getting very low on cash but nearly finnished.No holidays for me this year now :sad:
