Sell the focus, use the cash for a deposit, move in and then use her wages and his jobseekers allowance to pay the rent and buy food.

I think this is bull**** tbh.

The 8 in the morning one is better

'They share 2 pasties from a budget bakery'

Um why not just have one each? do they eat half of one and pass it on then repeat or what...

Should sell the car (gathering it´s all paid for) and use the money to get a cheap apartment.

Do a budget, include only the necessities and eliminate everything not important and use his and her incomes to pay for food and stuff.

There's really no need to live in a car, there are literally countless "forgotten" houses in the UK. I'd just move into one of those . You could even get the electricity etc. hooked up and no one would ask any questions so long as the bills were getting paid. Reckon you could probs dodge council tax too.

People are quite unimaginative, if you don't have kids or other dependents, the world is your oyster.

Not everyone has parents who can bail them out LT! I'm only 29 and one of my parents is retired and has set himself up in a one bed granny flat. The other was cremated last March and so almost as useless.

And from the look of these two, their mates have other things to spend their money on. Like heroin. And bail.

Not everyone can run to mummy and daddy if something goes wrong. Hell I recently went through a really bad patch where there was fraud on my bank account and I was broker than I have EVER been and my parents wouldnt help one bit.

However as I said earlier, this just doesn't ring true at all. I think its another scam like the old couple in the airport. While gullible people keep donating, crap like this will keep hitting the news

Good point Arista, yes I also think they could be scamming people with this story , trying to get massive publicity and then a fighting fund is set up and local people help and before long it has 20K...50K... or more and so then it's thank you very much and off back to the detached Mock Tudor Mansion in Wimslow.
