You say that:

you pay: rent, pay council tax, dont drive, dont smoke, love a drink, dont go on holidays, dont bleeping buy designer, no loans, no credit cards,no takeaways, anyone else got any any realistic advice cos i wouldnt ask otherwise

Why don't you 1st of all, get a huge loan, you say you have no commitments so by the time your dead you don't have to worry about paying it back. Start smoking, buy designer clothes, learn to drive and buy a nice car out of your loan, drink more and finally, with you huge loan, go on holiday FFS!

I opted out, bought a small croft, got sheep and chickens, set up a garden for veg. Very hard work and eventually went back to working. There were even less luxuries. I now don't have credit or plastic, if I want it I save or pay cash if I have it. I shop at aldi or lidl and only buy clothes that are reduced or in the factory outlet.
It's hard going but for the first time in year's i've got some savings.
The alternative lifestyle is very hard and money wise you'll be no better off. I sold the croft.
