Hi paulasol,

London always appears to be a very expensive city to live in when you compare the living costs with other cities. Generally, people working in London get paid more which covers the high accommodation and transport costs leaving them with similar disposable income to people in other major cities.

There are ways of living "cheap" in London, eg live further out from the centre, don't own a car, don't eat out at Gordon Ramsay's Wink

You don't have to earn a fortune to live in London but if your earning potential is low London life can be a struggle.

Cheers,
Mogwai
