LAUAN502, Study Task 6

Study Task 6 

When doing this spreadsheet I wasn't that surprised with the outcome I got.  I knew that I had to start saving up, because in this university year I would only be working during half-terms and holidays.  I've decided not to work as much in my second year of university because one of my weaknesses in my first year was time management. I struggled to balance my student work, paid-work and social life. This resulted in doing my work at the last minute and not pushing myself further. 

My total income came to: £4,951. However, I feel this would of been a lot higher in my first year and possibly quite higher if I worked full-time and was earning money. This proves to me that I am able to save if needs be. As well as learning my money-saving skills, this also makes me realise how much I want to succeed in my job. In a full-time job situation I want to be able to spend a little more money on myself and not have to worry about giving up certain things so I can afford to pay for the more important bills like, my food shop or my rent.
