- 26-year-old, wannabe entrepreneur, Luke, lives in Bristol, works as a head chef, and earns £15,000 a year. But, he's cooked up a stomach-churning debt of £25,500. Fine cuisine, drinking, and Luke's number one passion, snowboarding, have sent his spending way out of control.

Isn't it obvious that he should move to a ski town, work as a chef at a restaurant there & be a ski bum for a few years? He would be in heaven & with his cooking skills, he can get a good job.
Exactly, maybe Italy (well not now in Corona of course) excellent in Food and snow. He could find a decent restaurant to work at.
You are totally correct ...
I think he’d have to take his mum along 😅
Great thinking!
Chefs don’t make as much as you think, i even have a culinary degree & don’t make nearly as much as you’d probably think.
This guy shouldn’t be anywhere near his own business he’s far too lazy. Why does everyone think that owning your own business is less work? It’s bloody hard work - if anything you work twice as many hours.
Facts!
twice the hours, quadruple the problems and dodecahedron the bills!
Its way more work you are absolutely right
@Cameron Dodecuple ;)
Better than taking orders from some cocky upstart
2.28 for cigarettes- the good old days 😂
Right, yikes! There was an episode the other day where the lad was paying £1.50 a pint! 🤣😭
who the hell quits a job without another lined up... and 25 K in debt.
He did. :P
that confused the hell out of me!!
everyone in this show pretty much
@@Ife17 me too
Luke does!
There is a difference when a parent gives their grown son money to pay for food or help with rent but not for him to go out and spend on snow board stuff.
If I asked for money from my folks for a snowboard then they’d laugh in my face. I snowboard but I bought all my own gear and 95% of it was from the sales, including my board.
So weird watching this and know exactly where that house is and every place that was shown. Bristol is my hometown. No idea how old this vid is but Argus chip bar is still there and open lol
Approx 2004/05 it was filmed!
His thinking process is of a 12-year-old.
He speaks like a 12 year old too.
He is the definition of the word gormless; a very British word meaning lacking intelligence and vitality.
@@cindybeaton2103 to me he seems on the ad(h)d spectrum. not so much lacking intelligence - just a bit naive.. but he really needs/needed help.
He doesn't need to grow up because mum isnt willing to let fall down and learn how to get himself up alone
15k a year as head chef????? He's being robbed.
This was filmed a while ago so now days he would be earning more but on the contrary he'd be spending alot more to 🤷🏼♀️
@@amberwilson5966 even for back then 15k is robbery
@@amberwilson5966 Would you like to come and work for me?
$15,000??? That’s ridiculously low, even if it was 10 years ago.
It was $15k cash. 😊
He said he likes a well hung piece of meat. Well damnit, I DO TOO...LMAO
I’m glad I’m not the only one who thought that hahah
Bahahah 😂
Don’t we all? 😂
Sounds a bit rude lol
It not a carry on film
I don't really see the point in doing cold turkey if friends pay for the person. It's about realising if you can live without some of these non essential stuff like going out to eat. He really should think of going away for a year right now and earn some money at a place where he can do snowboarding as well. Stop spending money on anything non essential for that year and save up to pay his mum back all he owes and start saving up for whatever he wants to do next. Interesting to know what happened since this was filmed
He does not strike me as a person who will keep to his budget and pay off his debts. He seems like he did what he needed to for the show and is going back to his old ways as soon as he’s done.
I agree but that's because Mark delt with the philological aspect and not Benjamin. I like Mark but Benjamin is the real deal.
I will watch all of these.
haha! same same ...why is that?
It's such a bingeable show omg I already watched so many episodes
I will too. When he paid back his Mom almost put a tear in my eye.
Every single one 😊
Idky it’s so bingeable because every episode is pretty much the same except slightly tweaked towards a specific personality/lifestyle yet here I am still watching them for hours before I go to bed every night.
"I've just always wanted to be rich" 🤣 Priceless. Actually, this is the first episode that I've watched where I just wanted to shake him and say "grow up"!
Because he aspires to be more than a wageslave
@@prochoicenotantivax119Hush, are you the man child in the show?
I know too many people who live a life they simply can't afford. You have to be smart and humble to accept that you can't hang your hat so high.
So shouldn't aspire to be more wow so inspiring
It isn’t only people who cannot afford their lifestyle. Even if you can afford spending a lot, people in the western world over consume like crazy.
She sets a budget of $380# a month for his mother, and he only gives his mother 150# from his monthly paycheck???
God, as someone who's in over 10k in credit card debt, I love these episodes.
You’ll be okay, just work to pay as much as you can every month and don’t add more to it.
@@sassyhello thank you Kind Stranger 😊
I hope you’re all sorted now
"I'd just rather have a well-hung piece of meat" um
Me too. :-)
That's what she said... 😉
@@sixxlee890 :-)))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))
🤣
Clearly there's more than snowboarding gear in the closet.
That dog said NOT HAPPY
I know this is quite an old show, bu t£15,000 a year for a head chef position? McDonalds workers make more than that.
Going by the monthly rent of £325 for a shared house in Bristol is must be perhaps 15 years ago? Not a great salary even for the time but I wonder if that related to the fact he was paid cash in hand so not through the books?.
Hes unbelievable having an £8 drink and this was a few years ago.
One thing I am impressed with is that is place is clean and that he cooks
Oops, two things 😬
I mean he is a chef
@@rafaelgonzalezrobles7380 yes, makes sense I know... but a lot of these shows they just do take out all the time regardless. Kind of related like how people working in finance don't manage their own money well
Move to Whistler BC, be a server and snowboard when you're off. Aussies do it all the time.
Before you spending your money with uncontrol ways, just rember this advice, Your present money is also had part of your future/ old days... so be wisely to spending yours in every peny that u own.
What exactly are the qualifications needed to be a "lifestyle expert"?
He’s a chef, 100% snorts his money.
He talks and thinks way too slow to do coke
He reminds me of some chefs I’ve worked w.. and they def did lol
I've never heard this stereotype
lol chef and snowboarder... def hitting the peruvian marching powder
I was a chef 35 years. Never even smoked a cigarette. I’m not saying addiction is not a problem in the industry, but let’s not stereotype. The hours create problems. When you finish work at midnight and are wound up it’s easy to hit the pub with others in the same boat.
Halfway through and im not taking this guy seriously
Many of these shows dont mention your health is your wealth also/so many of us dont think when we wake up what would happen if i couldn't walk to the shops see etc /im binge watching them all
He needs to stop borrowing. Even near the end he thinks about it and she is near retirement.
He will grow up once his mom stops enabling him. Sink or swim. Why does mom keep giving in? Put the life vest on yourself first then the baby. So baby won’t/can’t take take of her in retirement so she needs to look after herself first
This show should be without friends or family also on a turkey week
He definitely spends on coke/other drugs
Ahhh definitely didnt think of that
Watching Luke with the kids was beautiful 🥰.
His friends aren't helping him, on the contrary, they're enabling him. Bad friends. Mom's the prime enabler. 🛑
Pleassseeeeeee bring Benjamin Fry back.....
Completely disagree. He was an unqualified twatwaffle. This guy may not be a great psychologist but at least he actually has a psychology degree which is more than can be said for Benjamin.
@@CraftyWitch1990obviously a degree doesn't mean he's any good, and Benjamin really got people thinking
Much too posh.
It’s hardly cold turkey when he’s basically used his mates 3 times in one week! Cmon if I was to be truthfully honestly they should have made a rule where they can’t get money from family and friends
They could make that rule but that doesn't mean they'd obey those rules. Some of them don't even stick to the rule of the cold turkey budget full stop so why would that get any different
The people who use the term entrepeneur are always fake. 🤣🤣🤣
Luke could be a snowboard instructor all over Europe....
I don't think he's quite good enough up LMAO
£10 for the week was a bit ridiculous
I think I will pass on blood soaked chips 😬
Love bloody chips.
do people from uk not now how to say fillet? everyone keeps saying “fellit” rather than “fill-aye”
No you are wrong the British say it correctly. It’s French word so we pronounce it the same as it should be for that type of beef. Americans say it how it’s written which is wrong. It is pronounced’fill aye’
@@orangeistheway2083 did you not read his comment or watch the video ?
Usually the people who take part in this series try to do better but I don't feel that Luke has improved - he is still an overgrown baby
When financial abuse is called loving your parent..... i once borrowed £100 quid , for a week, off of my mum and step-dad and got called all the useless/worthless morons ever.....they got the money back, as pre-arranged, but never let me forget it.
£2.58 for cigs. Those were the days...
Yup 😂
And when you were able to smoke inside
I was bartending in London, earning £4.50 an hour and having cigarette smoke blown all over me for 8 hours at a time. Plus having to clean out other people’s filthy ashtrays all night. Those were the days. 😄
I always wonder how those people are after few months, year. Do they stick to the plan? Do they pay the debts down? Would be good to revisit them to find out. I hope some of them are able to stick to the plan, maybe not 100%, but just a bit?
So did a bit of search on Google and looks like he is doing very well for himself. After multiple failed ventures, he has managed to keep a restaurant running despite covid. He is married, just had a kid and owns the place with his wife. It's called The Limping Fox in Thames Ditton. The place is doing well.
Interesting... spending money makes me upset, not happy. I wonder where that comes from.
fear of being poor.
You’re naturally a saver than a spender. I find people are usually inclined towards one or the other. Both extremes are bad.
Good Job Good idear
TNANK YOU for Sharing Video
This psychologist looks like a Mitchell and Webb character
100%
His mother does him no good by giving him always money. She has to stop it. Period.
Paid in cash?? Paid £300 per week as a head chef?! 🤔
So that's called stealing. He should hope his boss doesn't see this
@10:32....don’t we all 🤭🤣
This is me. Same age, same dreams. I'm a little better with money, but by no means good.
22:38 I haven't seen an electric meter like this.
I think this was the pre courser to the modern day key meters
Is the psychologist the estate agent from Gavin and stacey ?
Marc Wootton? Haha they do look quite similar.
7:27, couldn't he make it a bit more unquantifiable, jeeze.
Its like saying each atom in this 1kg fillet steak is equivalent to 0.000,000,000,000,000,000,026p of what he owes.
Good for him
While he’s out the experts borrow his keys and have a root around’😂
15 grand a year how old is this 😆😆
🤣🤣🤣
2005-2005 so about 16 years old
A big night out, no problem. I don't understand how people can't go out without alcohol. I can have water all night and still enjoy my friend's company. It's not the drinks that make a night out.
He just quit a cash in hand job 🤦♀️
also a food in mouth job!!
£2.28 for a pack of cigarettes. Wow the price of living really has gone up 😂😂😂
Man child really.....
22:44 As an American, this is such a strange concept - the gas and electricity pay as you go. It totally makes sense...like filling the gas tank on your car...it’s just so foreign to have that applied to household utilities. Is it like this everywhere in Britain or just in certain areas?
Just certain areas, like council housing and some rentals in cities. Not that common really.
Mainly people on low income do it.
is charged 700 bucks (or Quid if you're on the otherside of the pond), and whips out a wad of cash... whoa!
The video says that he gets paid in cash! Still looks flashy though! 😎😂
As he looks at the bulls, the comment is, "I would rather have a well-hung piece of meat". Meaning? Why would he call himself an entrepreneur when he is doing no business except cooking and snowboarding, and the like? Then near the end, a few failed business attempts are mentioned, but selling sandwiches on the internet? Really?
'nuf sed.
Wotdermatter Because he’s just a ‘wannabe’. It’s rather pathetic really. He seems like a nice guy (except from leeching off his mum) but he has that casual, drifter type personality and doesn’t sound particularly well educated so I think his ‘big-shot businessman’ aspirations won’t amount to much.
I think he's into another kind of snow
He needs real guidance.
I think so too. I have a little guess that he might have ad(h)d ?!
he is showing some characteristics. hope he is well now!
cheers everyone here :)
Okay i know childhood insecuritie is common so did you guys have this affect t your spending? Asking for the 40 ppl in these episodes who are in debt because their dad walked out.
sorry, but what the F makes this guy an Entrepreneur in the first place ? he's a chef and well underpaid. none of his petty hustles are even off the ground to generate cash flow.
I jnow the narrator called him a head chef but I think she was just flattering him
Maybe he should consider AA. Mom shouldn’t have pd phone especially since he gave his 2 week notice
Prefer Mark to the other 'psychologist'.
Alcohol 🤦♀️
Why do people eat almost alive steak
Medium rare is best
Their blood thirsty cannibals!! 😁 😁 😁 😁 😁 😁 😁 😁
It taste better tbh. You may be squeamish about it but it is just the truth 👍
@@ultraboombean medium well is where it's at with steak.
Medium is balanced, as all things should be
I get so excited to see that other psychologist , not the bald one on here.
I like Benjamin's sensibility.
Sixx Lee Me too, much prefer Benjamin
Same
Mark looks like Gary Barlow.
@@sixxlee890 Benjamin doesn't have a personality
i can't say i would like bloody meat that bleeds into my "chips," but i CAN say that meat should be more "fairly" priced for all of the resources it utilizes and all the ways it destroys the planet. if it were "fairly priced," it would be like a nice "treat" or just something to use in smaller amounts, which is much healthier for all of us anyway!
i know other people (obviously!) have other opinions which is fair because i am not the only person with opinions in the world! but that is my opinion. in all fairness, i also believe we should all try to grow as much of our food as we can - this year has been my start to that end so i have a very long way to go toward that!
aside from the "opinions" about food, i second all of the comments that he should just move to a "ski town" or more snowy, mountainous area! he could even be an instructor and maybe start his own business by doing so - maybe something like a cozy lodge or something!
also, as per the gin and tonic, why doesn't he just buy a nice big bottle of gin and his own tonic water which here is under $1 and make his own drinks? that would be LOADS cheaper!!! also, are cigarettes really that cheap in the uk?!?! and if he is trying to portray this "healthy snowboarder" kind of image, he really should lay off the smokes!! that in and of itself would save him a small fortune!
oh dear, this is another terribly long comment. but one suggestion for anyone who owes their parents money for whatever reason; pay it off in monthly amounts. my mother helped me get out of debt awhile ago when i was very very sick, and i repay her to this day every month. totally fair and something that will not destroy your budget nor the budgets of any parents!
Shut up!
Cigarettes were that cheap yes. This was filmed in 2005. £4 back then would have bought a pack of 20. That same pack is now around £12
10:31 - I see
His mom is gorgeous !
Hasn't aged in a day.
300 pounds for a chef is incredibly low.
Jay does not know the difference between the past tenses of buy and bring and she's a grown woman!
Lol drag her
I would be a cheapskate if I make that much money
That much??? 15 000 annually? It's just a little over 1200 per month. That is very little money.
@@blondecat666 not for me cuz I livd at home with my parents so I would definitely be cheap
@@chelbydavis8202 Well, it's easy then. :-) But at some point you will move out. Better be prepared... :-)
@@blondecat666 I'll move out when I'm ready but now I want to stay forever at home so I'm saving money
@@blondecat666 back in 2005 (when this was filmed) a 15k salary actually gave you about 950 a month net cause the tax-free allowance was much lower.
Poor mother but she spoiled him lol
Bad time buddy
15k as a chef?? That’s low right??
Well they did not clarify his hours and watching him I’m guessing he works part time?
@@MH-en9qc even so, that’s insanely low. Part time in my country is like 30k a year
@alioc3298 where are you from!?
@@dansanders2002 Australia. Average chef salary is 70k here
6:53 p sycho behavior
Why is this fellow called a "master chef?" Is that all a master chef earns in the UK? 300 pounds per week?
He spent zero £’s on a decent haircut.
Ha ha I agree, it looks like a greasy birds nest.
No exuses, he is a young man, he can work 14 hours per day for his hobies. Maybe then he will be so tired once in his life to sleap another 10. About food its good he is eating real good food, buy a sixpak and drink it at home. Now is a good time to isolate and spend less money.
Benjamin would have sorted him out. Without his kind of psychotherapy this guy showed no improvement, at least for the duration of the show.
In one word. Thick
dear Luke, I hope you've finally gotten your ADD-diagnosis
10:31
A dude that dumb should have never been granted a credit card in the first place. I'm surprised he is a chef, being responsible for someone else's business like that. He needs to resign and grovel.
Can’t judge a man that love his steak 🥩
Jesus, left with 28 pounds a month after expenses? How will he ever clear the massive debt!
28 pounds back then buys you the same for 200 pounds today.
But he still had to pay off 25000£ with that@@BrouwStreams_
Not just women have problem hehe
It’s mostly woman with these type issues
