  • Expensive nights out and impulse purchases are wreaking havoc on this 29 year olds bank balance. Can Jay Hunt and Benjamin Fry cure this shopaholic?
    #Spendaholics #FullEpisode #Debt
    Despite working 2 jobs this 29 year old's bank balance is in the red. Tim currently spends nearly £1000 a month on nights out which is greatly contributing to his £40000 debt. Jay Hunt and Benjamin Fry use shock tactics to confront Tim with his overspending, but can he commit to going cold turkey for 7 days?
    Spendaholics is a British TV series where the Spendaholics team tame out-of-control spenders!

      Hi Eld !!! Well, my previous episode with Tommy McNally Spendaholics episode : th-cam.com/video/LEZkF4zjvqk/w-d-xo.html I was a bit curious like yourself and just did a quick Google search since they say their full names, apparently Tommy is doing fantastic, he has about 5 businesses, a large company called Tommy's Tax and he also does his football (soccer) coaching and models too !!! Yeah, I needed some motivation and some inspiration, I'm doing the Dave Ramsey plan (Step 3)..... take care !!!

      @@jaynestag95 I'm 66 and didn't even like 'discos' in my youth. They weren't called clubs then. I'm glad it was when marijuana was the main drug and it was good quality and naturally grown, though didn't indulge that much. Don't like most drinks but did it socially up until I had children. Hardly drink alcohol now. My main vice is clothes, but I've never overspent and ended up in big debt. Too many other things have always demanded money, plus as you get older, trends are boring as it's all been done before and you just want quality, comfortable clothes that look nice, last and suit you.
      I feel sorry for this guy, despite the disgusting way he talked about his ex. No, she did not behave well but he gave her the money. He doesn't respect himself, how can he expect women to respect him? I hope he's sorted himself out, knocked off the posing, and got some therapy. If you do the work, there is always room for improvement throughout life, and in his case, improving how he chooses his friends, which would mean a complete turn around of his values.
      Hopefully, he is much more likeable now. It seems unfair that 20 years later, they are still on the internet. Would make me squirm.

      800 a month is just under 10 grand a year I've spent around 10 grand over past 2 years on clothes and I have 2 6 foot rails that are bending because the ammount of clothes I have on them it's all designer in someway whether it be Nike or Burberry. So he spends 800 on clothes but doesnt even have a wardrobe in his room just a box of porn hahah 10000 a year on clothes is loads my house is constantly clothes and trainers in places and I've spent half of what this guy has and this is 15 years later so can you imagine 15 years ago spending 800 a month on clothes is the equivalent of spending about 1400 a month now. This guys addiction to cocaine is so evident. Look how he reacts to when the guy says take a nice big sniff of your pint. Exactly how I used to react when we had a drug education lesson in school and a teacher would refer to weed as blow or something stupid. When he said have a nice big sniff he found it amusing not because he was smelling a pint because he usually refers to a nice big sniff as something else which humoured him. Also his personality changes from day to day one day hes smiley and seems happy to be taking part in the show. Then other parts he seems he is only there because he has to be and he is very fidgety and one word answering.

      I agree. I choose clothes wisely and ones I can use for a long time. I probably get something once every few months if I need it but many people just shop for the sake of it. It's just not smart to keep buying and buying because eventually (apart from not wearing them) they won't fit in your wardrobe so you would have to get rid of them. The fast fashion clothing industry is one of the most wasteful and polluting things for the planet.

    Can I just say with today’s throw away fashion trend, it’s better to pay a little more for a well stitched and high quality clothing than flimsy and cheaply made clothes. You can get high quality clothes without designer labels I just want to stress the fact that going for the cheaper item may not be the cheapest in the long run. They can also last for years ( if you take care of it) in comparison to paying £20-40 (still pricey but considerably cheap for a coat) just my opinion. I think Tim’s problem is that he likes to show off at the club/is too generous with other people’s money.

      Agree, I hate it when I think I made a bargain with some item purchased and after first wash it's twisted because they been so tight assed when cutting out the pieces for the item that they don't place the fabricweave in corresponding line. I appreciate some designer items of various pricerange but shy away for the typical trendy stuff and I don't mind buying second hand, and a pair of Bottega Veneta or Roger Vivier are not only well balanced and fairly comfortable even with 11 cm heels, they last for ever if given some tlc. Screening e-bay and similar sites day after christmas can also be worthwhile.

      That's the difference though. If you've saved up for a good quality item that will last you a good few years then thats gonna work out cheaper than blowing huge amounts in one go that you can ill afford and that you're just paying for a name stitched on a label.

    WHY do they not tell people to STOP 🛑 shopping instead of buying cheaper clothes? If they have been spending over $800 a month on clothes and shoes- they’re fine for a while... ever heard of washing your clothes??

      Nope he isn't. Look up the "I'm 25,000 in debt" episode on this channel. It's a woman named Ruda on the episode. Right near the start the narrator says something like "after being in therapy himself, he wrote a few self-help books and used his experiences to help others". He may have taken qualifications after but if he has, they aren't listen on his website anywhere. He's just a guy who had mental health issues, realised how much people pay to get into therapy and thought, "hey, i can do this too!" But didn't actually bother looking into studying how to do it properly

      Yeah, and it's somewhat puzzling. It's a fairly creative career, I'd think he would perhaps direct motivation to that, strive for a house with his own yardplot etc., perhaps striving to have something at Chelsea garden show? On the other hand I saw an interview with photographer Sean Tucker who pointed out that perhaps the wisest thing is not jumping into having a business as a photographer since you may end up with less time to shoot what you like shooting, you risk ending up doing a lot of work that pays the bills while not being not challenging whatsoever.

      @MrAjr7 There may be good intentions of supporting but being lax about paying back does not any good, being that dependent on your parents at the age of 30 must be rather destructive for the self esteem. Unfortunately he is adopted as well, and people who are adopted are frequenly more depressed, abusing drugs or alcohol and also distinguished in suicide statistics and that even if they come to a good family at an early age. Even if they don't remember it in an intellectual sense they tend to emotionally be aware that they were rejected.

    Although he clearly has a chip on his shoulder, I do like some of those features of the landscape when he showed his dad around. The walk with the lights was nice. Not practical in a climate where it snows like I live but wish it were. The bubbling water feature was also clever to give a sound effect and break up the greenery and pots look.

  • @annas4714

    It was very upsetting to read the majority of comments here. The guy is dyslexic and most likely has some kind of learning disability - isn't it enough to feel a little sorry for him? And the boarding school? I have not heard one positive thing about it yet, and probably for a reason, too.
    At the end of the episode I felt like all the attempts to save him failed. Reason being that he needs more than a financial planner and a self-help type of psychological advice.
