im earning (as of next months payrise) just short of 17k, with no mortgage or debts and very low rent as im still living with parents. My wage would be more than enough for me and my fiance to live comfortably on which is what is frustratingme the most.

I guess my only options are get a 2nd job, save 16,000, or just wait and see what the future holds with court cases and stuff?

also does anyone have a link regarding the 16,000 savings?

Its nice to know were not alone in this situation. As im sure it has for a lot of members here, its turned our life and plans upside down.
