I think these estimates are at least 30 to 50 % lower than reality. London is a very expensive place to live in. I grew up in London and I know what I'm talking about my friend

@Bertie22222 Год назад

and you'd be right

@alli_the_frog Год назад

Same here.

@Michaelsimeon333 11 месяцев назад

Yeah this is true. I live in london too and it's double the cost that she said

@francescasaba6785 Год назад

very detailed and really gives an idea of the costs of living in London, really appreciated the 2 version budget and posh :) thank you v¨for the vid !

@craciunlabs Год назад

Thank you for the video. This is very very conservative rates for rent and gas. My friend told me bills ars x5 on gas and electricity . I remember looking at rents months ago nothing under 300pounds a week for a crappy small box :( For a decent monthly i would say 2500 is a mininum. I am not saying luxury, prices are insane.

@mingkecareer Год назад

Unfortunately these figures are based on data from the past 5 years! I have split a flat with friends previously in zone 2 and I paid £600 a month - this year is crazy with rents and bills :/

@paulungureanu937 Год назад

Rubbish, £500 around Greenwich, £0 on my daily commute to Canary Wharf. London life is rather pleasant if you know how to display some pragmatism.

@jenniferstudent5258 Год назад

I remember trying to find a small studio in London and it was impossible, extremely high prices, low quality, dirty bathrooms and the rising mortality of children exposed to mold in households is crazy...

@matheuslopes8832 Год назад

I’ll move in three weeks to London, and I started to search 2 dorm apartments there… the minimum I found was around 1,300pcm (without bills) 😭

@mingkecareer Год назад

This year has been crazy! 😢

@tan8813 Год назад

1000 as rent ? Your having a laugh lady, it’s £1600 for a studio flat, excluding all bills,

@Ssssha248 Год назад

True and she said zone 1 , that’s impossible

@Lady_Tee15 Год назад

😮😮😮😮

@Michaelsimeon333 11 месяцев назад

Yeah it's expensive now. You lucky if you find 1200£ exclusing bills and that's not even in london area

@carmentrabajo1007 Год назад

How is possible yo pay 50£ / month for the utilities?: In UK you have: WATER, LIGHT, GAS, WIFI, COUNCIL TAXES...all of those for 50£???

@mingkecareer Год назад

It was an average for the past five years (excluding 2022) - unfortunately 2022 is an outlier and usually the living cost isn't not crazy like 2022!

@lanceatone Год назад

I'm paying 100/mo for just water and council tax. In total, more like 200/mo. I moved here 2016 and never payed as low as 50/mo.

@TheManuel012009 Год назад

Unless she is sharing with 3 others in a 1 bedder crammed liked prisoners somehow miraculously getting the bills that low.

@lanceatone Год назад

Zone 1 single for 1100? It's higher than that. I'm seeing 1400+ for studios and 1800+ for 1 bedroom. Rents are out of control in London. Everyone is being priced out and moving to the outskirts to survive. If you are thinking of moving here, don't, it's a complete mess---at best a zero-sum game.

@agatapikul5862 Год назад

You have absolutely no idea what youre saying that London is not good cyclists! Myself, I use Santander Cycling Scheme for past 3 years where by paying 70-90£ PER YEAR I have unlimited 30 min, since last year 1h journeys. There is already so many docking stations & theyre still building new ones! Now they gave electric ones as wl, and still Im not speaking about other companies like Lime, Uber cycling etc, which a loot around the city. There is so many cycling routes in London that to be honest as I use from the Scheme 3 years maybe 1 per 3 months Im using a public transport which is extremely rare considering I work full time & cycling in most cases will take you to a destination 2x or 3 x faster than this overcrowded, delayed & expensive bus! You didnt do the reserch here at all.

@ahmedrashad7336 11 месяцев назад

i love the way you speak

@nimishakhan3255 Год назад

Am I have a question what is the cost of living for a student from other country studying in London? How much does it cost?

@lanceatone Год назад

It's one of the most expensive places to live. If you don't have money saved, I wouldn't move here. Not worth it.

@Drill74268 4 месяца назад

Move up North, It's more affordable to rent a house or apartment.

@RabbitOfficialRap Год назад

On second zone to rent room just room is minimum 600 pound and actually if you want to have big room is 700 pound. If you want live alone in central city? You mean studio flat? Studio flat 1-2 zone it's minimum 1300 pounds plus bills....

@lanceatone Год назад

Yep, 1300pcm is about right for a studio, a tiny, old studio.

@carmentrabajo1007 Год назад

IS It true, nowadays, IS the same to pay the tube with a credit card than with the OYSTER card??

@vineeshvs Год назад

Hi, Thanks for the video. Could you help me with the following? What are the localities near Cambridge where the housing is comparatively cheap? 15 miles from Cambridge with connectivity via train is okay.

@mingkecareer Год назад

Hi Vineesh, make sure to check Zoopla or Rightmove - they are commonly used platforms to look for accommodation!

@stevelamprou Год назад

Where in central London can you find a flat to rent for £1000, pls show me. Double that and you can hardly find something decent even then.

@TheManuel012009 Год назад

Ridiculous figures. Chelsea in a dump of a studio 2000 a month because they know they’ll get it for the demand is huge

@sarahharkat6385 Год назад

You are totally wrong, sorry

@moisesfernando2516 Год назад

Please drop a more accurate suggestion in your opinion.

@silvinainiguez2415 Год назад

I loved your video, I had been in londron three month ago and I Just spend 70 usd for two weeks

@mohammadalij5035 Год назад

Hi how are you doing What about entertainment and internet and gym ?

@mohammadalij5035 Год назад

Not drinking and not smoking

@mingkecareer Год назад

Internet £10-£30 and gym £30-£40 per month!

@leoashura8086 Год назад

A studio flat in the worse areas in london is 900 pounds it's ridiculous to live here, The only way to live is with a partner or even 3, to split the bill

@mingkecareer Год назад

Yess that's what I did and it helped to reduce my rent massively

@Awarebynature Год назад

lol not sure how you are getting these low figures, £600 for rent hahaha no way

@mingkecareer Год назад

Just when you said it - I did a new video on 'How to Save Money Living in London' where I talked about how I spent only £600 on rent!

@joelrecla9083 Год назад

Nobody is telling u to live or forcing anyone to live in England.

@darshanajmera902 Год назад

This is cost was assessed on which month?

@mingkecareer Год назад

Based on my experience in the past 5 years and they are taken as average :)

@philliploco5037 5 месяцев назад

Don't eat out don't join a gym don't do any outdoor entertainment , buy second hand clothes second hand books , use foodbank use community shop buy food from outdoor markets like Brixton market supermarkets expensive walk or use bike for travelling or work from home. try get council flat. and go to boot sales they sell everything cheap including groceries. and go dumpster diving marks & spencer shops excellent for dumpster diving. Cost of living in England is DISGUSTING. Vote Labour. Also join Library and do free courses for unemployed. or cheaper courses if you are working. Check out Brixtom & Lambeth College. and you can buy cheap second hand exercise equipment at boot sales buy dumbells kettle balls exercise at home.
