Right, well basically my funding is something like this:
eBay - buying and selling at a higher price... not to be taken lightly but it works if you pick the right things
I own/run my own web-design business with a friend, and although we don't do a huge amount of trade it covers a few extra costs
Government Maintenece Grant & Loan - Both are available for OAA because of the Bucks New Uni Foundation Degree... the loan repayments are so minute as to almost be not worth considering (can't remember off the top of my head, but we are talking literally only a few pounds per month), and of course the grant you don't have to pay back.
BBVA loan as mentioned above, covers quite a bit of the costs, but I am by no means going for the full amount.
Savings that I've made from the age of about 6... and no I didn't get hundreds of pounds a week in pocket money... I think it was £1/week to begin with, combined with birthday/christmas money, a good interest rate etc.
I do have a small amount coming from relatives, however it by no means makes up a significant amount of the total.
Also I have a job, which feeds into my savings.
I hope some of this information is useful to some people out there!!
