How to Thrive in London with More Grit Than Cash
So, you've moved to London — or maybe you've always been here — but your wallet's looking a little... tragic. Rent is wild, the Tube eats your paycheck, and somehow you've spent £20 without even knowing how. Sound familiar?
Big City Broke is the real-talk, no-fluff survival guide for anyone trying to make it in the capital with more ambition than disposable income. Whether you're looking for a place to live, hunting for a job, building a social life, or just trying to glow up on a budget, this book has your back.
Inside, you'll find tips on:
Scouting the best London areas (without losing your deposit or your mind)
Building a budget-friendly wardrobe that slays for work, casual days, and nights out
Finding free fun, cheap eats, and hidden gems across the city
Surviving job loss and knowing where to turn when times get tough
Investing, self-care, safety, love, mates, hobbies, and so much more
This isn't just a guide — it's a hype-up, a blueprint, and a reminder that London doesn't have to bankrupt your joy. With a bit of hustle and heart, you can live big — even when you're broke.
