Default Re: Two in five Brits save nothing

I don't think anyones got anything extra to save!!! We all need as much as possible as accessible as we can!!

I admit that automaically £150 goes into my savings every month - however more often than not, its straight back out the next week to top up on my current account!! It's really bad - I need a higher paying job really - however so many people are in my situation at the moment and the job market is rubbish so we need to just soldier on!!
