I'm 23 and I live at home with my family and have DS 3.
I want to save for a mortgage hard in the next two years.
If i save 200 a week,pay 70 a week to my mother and pay 50 a week in creche fees,I'll still have about 100 left over.
Only other bills is my phone and gym and they're both 20 a month.
More than once people have told me I'm mad and I wont be able to keep it up but I think two years of hard saving is nothing in the grand scheme of things.
Am I mad?

Op I think your mum must be very proud of you, working hard and making sacrifices to create a secure future for yourself and your ds.
Hope the saving goes well, and hopefully in 2years time you get there with your deposit.

Money always goes a lot further on paper than it does in your pocket
