No, I mean... if you have to save that small amount of money (and plan stuff on this level) to buy a house/apartment, you're already screwed. This is not living... lol.

I see you're 24 so I'm going to guess you are in rental accommodation still? or have you purchased your own home by that age? Just even with my current work if I could spend no money it would take me at least 3 years to be able to pay up front for a home myself (which is how I aim to buy property) during that time every bit extra which is spent means it takes longer to get to the goal.
Just if you don't mind me wondering how your rent / accommodation is paid for atm to think that you don't consider a saving of a few hundred euros per week to be "not living"

Don't worry, I don't mind answering.
Me and my boyfriend will buy our first apartment this year (around June/July, and we'll be sure to take at least 2 maids so we don't have to lose time doing useless stuff). I started college 2 years ago for fun (psychology), because I'm a very curious person and learning is something I truly love. Don't know if I'll work eventually or not, but it's still an invaluable experience.
Btw, I find amusing americans PoV regarding school/work/money. It ditches freedom completely if you are expected to do certain things at certain points. I'd be a sad person if I had to save a few hundred dollars/euros per week. To me, this is not living (if you have to rationalize everything and don't have the opportunity to experience stuff without putting much thought into them).
