Live Like A King - Spend Like a Pauper

In this concise guide, Richard Lincto offers sound and sensible advice on how to cut costs without sacrificing all of life's little luxuries.

We are all living in strange times. The ramifications of the Covid lockdown and the over-eager compulsion of the World governments to eradicate the dreaded Corona Virus are being felt in the most extreme of ways. Nobody yet knows the true costs or implications of their actions.

Add to this, the actions of a complete Despot in the Kremlin and we have what is termed in modern parlance – 'A Perfect Storm'.

Oil prices have rocketed, so too has gas. We all know the effects only too well. A visit to the petrol station or supermarket now has a tinge of fear. Even these actions are as nothing to the total dread that people are now experiencing when the quarterly bill drops through the letterbox.

In short, no matter your income, there is no escape. To quote yet another well-worn phrase 'We are all in it together'. To that, I would add – some more than others.
