I'll make a long story short.
I've saved like mad the past 5 years to save up 30k with the intention of putting the deposit down on a house.
I'm 99% sure I'm about to get laid off at work due to 'restructuring of the business'. Here's the rub, my profession is pretty unique, it might take me a couple months to find another job and my rent is quite high.
In the 2 - 3 months I'm out of work, I'll easily spend 4k - 5k of my savings on rent and bills.
I live in the UK where we have housing benefits - is there any way I can get help with this? Or am I going to be penalised for saving sensibly as opposed to spunking my money on crap.
Thanks
