Raining_again Posted January 20, 2016 Posted January 20, 2016 (edited) Cambridge is the new London. Trololol. In more seriousness I'm facing the same thing. Cambridge prices are skyrocketing and to be honest there's not enough to go around. A one bed is going to cost me a fortune here. That also being said nobody seems to understand online (mostly Facebook) that my 24k income is not enough to buy a house. Because even if I did get the money, I couldn't afford the mortgage for most of it.. Yay! I get it. I only just managed it on my own. And I've bought a small 2 bed bungalow. I'm on just under 20k. Being on your own already and paying rent makes it a lot lot harder to save the deposit (like i'm sure a lot of people here are facing). I also had about half of my deposit given to me by my parents (4k). It took me a year to save over 3000 but i had to cut out EVERY single luxury out of my life for that year. Thankfully this flat im in was completely unfurnished so i have everything i need even down to fridge/freezer oven etc. Which is now something I don't have to buy. How much deposit do they ask for at the moment? I`ve been thinking I need to look into buying something that I can rent out while I`m living abroad just so I at least have something of value to my name. Most banks ask for a minimum of 10%, you can get deals with certain banks but a lot of them ask that you've been their customer for a certain amount of time and its also credit scored. At least a couple of banks (nationwide/halifax that i know of) are doing 5% but you need to save with them for your purchase. You can get slightly better base rates (depending on bank) for bigger deposits More likely to get approved for the money you put on the house (if you want to pay more than its "worth" you NEED the extra) Smaller your mortgaged amount the less interest you pay over the term (maybe not initially important but saves you money over the years or save your ass when the interest rates inevitably go sky high lol) Edited January 20, 2016 by Raining_again
EEVILMURRAY Posted January 22, 2016 Posted January 22, 2016 2 x South Park The Stick of Truth [PS3] 2 x Lego Batman 3 Beyond Gotham [3DS] Assassin's Creed Black Flag [PS3] Battlefield Hardline [PS3] Splinter Cell Blacklist [PS3] Wolfenstein The New Order [PS4] Because they were going cheap at work (about £27.60 for the lot) and can make financial gains at CEX.
Emerald Emblem Posted January 22, 2016 Posted January 22, 2016 For my Youtube videos. Gonna be more active in that respect this year. My first main video I'll be making will be on this at some point in the nearish future. Need a new coin purse and this is perfect for me. <3 Pre-order, I'm so hype to get my hands on it.

Emerald Emblem Posted January 23, 2016 Posted January 23, 2016 I did not know you had teh yewtewbz. Subbed. I have three, thanks to my google account becoming a third, of course that is just there. My main channel is gonna be an anime content channel, EmEmGameplay is exactly what you'd expect, a gaming channel.
Emerald Emblem Posted January 23, 2016 Posted January 23, 2016 How much a da mic? I got it on Amazon's warehouse deals, Like new for around £103. It's about £115 brand new.
EEVILMURRAY Posted January 28, 2016 Posted January 28, 2016 Went down a similar route. For my Youtube videos. Gonna be more active in that respect this year. Opted for this:

nightwolf Posted January 29, 2016 Posted January 29, 2016 I'd say put another SSD in that bad boy soon. I did the same thing 1TB HDD and 120gb ssd. Immediately wanted more space. Otherwise: nnooiiiceeee.

Otherwise: nnooiiiceeee. Yeah I'm thinking I might do that next month. I originally thought it'd be just fine having Windows 10 running off the SSD then have games on the 2tb hard drive but it would be nice to get some of the newer games on an SSD as well.
Josh64 Posted February 1, 2016 Posted February 1, 2016 Plans for Japan are coming together now and what once seemed like a distant dream is (scarily but excitedly) becoming a reality. My friend has all his money ready and is raring to go, I have most of mine but just need a few more pay days to have comfortable spending money and we've set down July as the month to go. So now it's just a case of me being sensible and not spending money on crap as I always do (or games I won't play). I've dreamed of going to Japan for years so this could be amazing but everything I do these days fills me with anxiety. I've just gotta remember that it's gonna be awesome and I shouldn't worry about every thing in the world ever. I MEAN ITS JAPAN OMG.
Will Posted February 1, 2016 Posted February 1, 2016 You`ll have an awesome time! If you need any tips (probably limited to Tokyo) by all means let me know.
Shorty Posted February 1, 2016 Posted February 1, 2016 Literally the same minute that Eurogamer's review came out
EEVILMURRAY Posted February 1, 2016 Posted February 1, 2016 £11.50 Couldn't keep holding the mic on my stomach all the time.
nightwolf Posted February 1, 2016 Posted February 1, 2016 Airbnb booked for NYC: and because I ruined a really nice ring of mine, I invest in a few more:
martinist Posted February 2, 2016 Posted February 2, 2016 also bought a binder and about 4 packs of sleeves
EEVILMURRAY Posted February 2, 2016 Posted February 2, 2016 also bought a binder and about 4 packs of sleeves If you get any Garchomp, Mega/Scizor EX, Espeon EX, Puzzle of Time, Max Potion, Fighting Fury Belt or the Greninja BREAK line, hook me up. I got trades n' everything. Hoping to get myself an Elite Trainer Box soon, was going to get one earlier but working nights so didn't bother.
Happenstance Posted February 3, 2016 Posted February 3, 2016 Decided to finally get Rogue Galaxy on PS4. Been meaning to play this ever since it came out on PS2.
