Why would somebody move to London without clearly arranged and set up means to support themselves? It’s one of the most expensive cities in the world. No one just moved in London in hopes to make it. I travel to London annually due to having close relative there (although she is moving out there soon) and I know first hand what everything costs, particularly rent.

It’s insane to go there in hopes some student loan would go through or someone would send you money. One has to align everything up before ever considering living there plus one has to make very good money to live there (have a good job or rather clearly arranged means). If one doesn’t, it’s naive and immature to even consider it. Unless of course one always finds others to support them
