What are you all doing about loans? I think I'll go for a career development loan of £10k and the rest cash, as I don't want the stress of servicing debt when I finish (if successful!), but just wanted to see what others were doing?
FANS - you are showing off. I like that - the rest in cash. I can just picture you delivering £71,000 in crisp notes as if you'd just withdrawn it from the hole in the wall.
In fairness, your sentiment is correct though. Servicing an £85k+ debt is unthinkable. Even at £26k salary - taking a grand off a month doesn't leave much.
