hmm... your predicament sounds like my life. Getting older is pretty scary. I'm 27 now and i still don't feel like an adult. i'm still a little kid on the inside, wandering the world in wide eyed fascination.

Fortunately something thinks i'm good at something so i have a pretty good job with a pretty decent wage. I live with my girlfriend and we've just bought a house and paying a mortgage. Now i'm scared about the financial situation, and i'm worried that I might lose my job because of these huge government spending cuts about to hit in the UK...

I don't think i'll be buying myself a new desktop either... Even though it is 8 years old now... my PS3 is enough for me.

My wife's father worked in a job where he was earning a quarter of a million dollars a year for something like ten years. He hasn't got any money saved up, though. Managed to fritter it away.... somehow.

I one hundred percent believe in saving money and investing money in such a way that my money will continue to work even when I can't.
