I'm not saying anyone should sacrifice standards , but some have to be made if your goal is not to work until you're in your late sixties, assuming you survive that long !

Suicide was the furthest thing from my mind !!
I'm just wondering if I could cut down my expenditure. Here are some of my avoidable expenses.

Golf membership: £1,200per annum
Hunting : £300 a hunt
Satellite TV: £70 per month .
Alcohol, women , dinning out . Undisclosed.
Can you see where I'm coming from?doh

Get rid of the lot. Golf is for tossers, hunting for morons, TV is mind numbing and the rest unnecessary.
