    Hey these are some things I think would be important I hope you don’t mind:
    What to do if you genuinely have 0 income
    How neurodiversity and disabilities can affect money and finances
    Gaining budgeting skills ready for university

    I can do any of these although recently it has been a case where we have dinner between 6-7 so the other times are better.

    Hey this is definitely up my alley! Not sure if it's been covered before but I think any tips on budgeting would be good, I'm pretty good at saving each month but I still spend far too much on easy takeout and meal deals 🥲🤣 so I think budgeting would be a good one, and maybe cover buy now pay later schemes? As these seemed to have grown in popularity lately and I think it's beneficial for people to learn about the downsides and what all the lingo means

    Thanks so much for all of your ideas everyone!

    Looks like this evening 7-8pm is a good time for us to run this money chat so we'll schedule that in and post up a thread shortly confirming the topics too :)

    We're going to be running these monthly so if we don't manage to fit everything tonight, we can cover more in our next chat!
    Maybe somethings don't get better, but we do. We get stronger. We learn to live with our situations as messy and ugly as they are. We fix what we can and we adapt to what we can't. Maybe some of us will never fully be okay, but at least we're here. We're still trying. We're doing the best we can. That's worth celebrating too ❤
