Student Budget

First from his school to get into Oxford, Andrew McCormack and his father Peter contrast their experiences of student budgeting.

Two people from different generations discuss society's changing attitudes to money.

The series takes a look at how our relationship with money has changed in the last 50 years. The series covers the lifespan from our earliest encounters with pocket money, to our views on money as we face retirement. With ever more complicated ways of managing money and shifting attitudes, what changes have been seen in our society over the last 50 years?

Andrew McCormack was the first pupil at his school to get into Oxford. He is finding student life a strain financially and is often mixing with students who have more money than he has. He compares notes with his father Peter McCormack who was at Strathclyde University in the 1970s.
