I seem to be running into a few situations recently where friends earning more than us - in some cases a lot more - is becoming an issue and I was just wondering what other people's thoughts are on the subject.
Scenario 1 - what should have been a pleasant day out with a friend and my daughter turned awkward when I said I couldn't afford to go anywhere for lunch and said could we just buy a sandwich from the supermarket instead
Scenario 2 - weddings - I have two coming up which are both wedding of the year type weddings - I've said we will go but no ideahow we will be able to afford the travel and aaccommodation
Scenario 3 - a hen weekend away for which the budget per person is £350 - again, no idea how I am supposed to afford any of it
Scenario 4 - another friend holidaying in the peak district and wants me to visit them for the day again I've said yes but no idea how I am supposed to afford the train fare.
Its all a bit of a problem. Its so rubbish just earning enough to pay bills, rent and food with no money left over for anything else
