Well what are you doing Vicki to get money, ummmm do share. Here in NZ we can apply for living costs which is $150 per week and that is all. Of course we have to pay this back so at the moment my student loan is $80,000. Arghhhhh.

We also get family assistance since we are on one income however if I decided to work then this is wiped, so we are stuck under a stone really, cant get ahead at all until I graduate.

Childcare fees are rising each month, its ridiculous.

Why do we do this to ourselves.
