This realisation left her feeling disheartened and demotivated as she lamented to her fans in a video.

"Realising you've been in the UK for almost two years now but you only have Shein clothes and wigs. There’s nothing to save. This is not life," she said.

The emotional clip sparked a wave of responses from social media users, who shared their thoughts and experiences on the matter.

Many people could relate to the lady's struggles, citing the cost of living in the UK as a major obstacle to saving money.

The burden of paying bills and expenses often left them with little to no disposable income, making it challenging to build up savings or invest in assets.

Commenting on the story, a UK-based lady, Divine Onyema, said she has been able to save money, but not so much.

"I can't say I have not saved. I have actually saved money but it's not much. It's not something I can really boast of that much but it's great for a start," she said.
