More and more people decide to come to London and stay in the busy city. However, not all are capable to pay the expensive
rent to enjoy the place. This is true
especially to students who stay in London
to pursue their studies. One of the
major problems of students is their limited resources. They have a very small budget for their basic
needs, education, and space for rent.
Money is always a problem especially to those who live as students
only—without any alternative way to earn cash.
For sure they need to do something to make both ends meet. They need to limit their expenses as much as
possible. Students cannot rely on others
to sustain their needs except for their fixed allowance sent by their
parents. Most of the time, the money
they have is not enough for all the expenditures in school and in home.
For this reason, there is an option to take to save a certain amount per
month or to have extra cash in their pockets.
Rather than paying the whole expensive rent alone, most of them attempt
to look for 1 bedroom flat and someone to share the room.
One of the factors to consider when finding a roommate is the age of
those in the flatshare. Students are young, energetic, and
friendly. They have many things in
common like technology, gadgets, movies, music and others. It is most likely to live comfortably with
someone at their age to be able to relate with others.
In contrast, there is a gap when a student chooses someone much older to
be his companion. Chances are the
student maybe controlled and dictated by the older roommate. There is a big difference in activities and
preferences and most probably, the two will not be well-matched as
roommates. For this reason, it is
evident that students in London
share their space to fellow students also.
It is a fact that a person can make a better bonding and share activities
with someone of the same age—students to fellow students. This is also true to mature professionals
living with fellow professionals.
Therefore, students must have time to search the same age bracket they
are most comfortable with. They should
find another student to share the utilities, room, and time with them.
Another thing to consider is the sex gender of the flatmate. It is always risky to join the room with the
opposite sex. There is a possibility for a relationship to develop if a young
man or lady live together and it is very tempting. Therefore, choosing someone of the same sex
gender is preferably acceptable.
Most importantly, it is convenient when monthly rent payment is shared
equally with somebody. The amount saved
can be used for other needs like additional allowance in school. They can have extra money for their pockets in
case emergency conditions occur.
