I'm 32 and never been to university for more than a week but recently I found out that I can reduce my cost of living substantially if I can sacrifice my pride a little. I now live in a shared apt, cook my own food and have gone from spending 1200 (700 rent, 500 food) to 550e (225 rent, 325 food).

Seems to me that if you can optimize your living costs then you can save more, get a lot more freedom to pursue whatever you want
