00:00 A lot of people at the moment are struggling financially with the cost of living and all

00:05 that and the prices of fuel and what not.

00:08 Have you made any cutbacks yourself?

00:12 Actually I have two or three charities.

00:16 I am making a direct debit for the charity.

00:22 But here, I can honestly tell you that I can't find anybody really struggling financially.

00:29 I'm living in Hereford so there I can't find anybody living financially very struggling.

00:38 But if somebody tells me, I definitely help them.

00:44 Even if we are walking in the street we can't find.

00:47 But some charitable organisation, they are organising.

00:50 I definitely am also giving some contribution from my side.

00:55 And in the build up to Christmas season obviously a lot of people are worried about the cost

00:59 of living and all that.

01:00 Are there any sort of cutbacks that you yourselves have made?

01:03 No.

01:04 And would you have any advice for anybody who is struggling or anything you think would

01:10 be a good idea?

01:11 Well my advice is, I watched Martin Lewis and Martin Lewis said that the first thing

01:16 you should do is work out how much money you can afford to spend and manage your budget.

01:23 Budget and plan.

01:24 We are in a fortunate position where we don't need to do that.

01:30 But just make sure that you are not spending above your means.

01:33 Work out how much you want to spend and can afford to spend and manage it accordingly.

01:37 - I've been called, man.
