I though of this the other day, can anyone see a hole in it that i’ve missed?

Step 1: Enrol on the open university for a degree
Step 2: Apply for student loan financing
Step 3: Receive money for living loans of 12k per year
Step 4: It doesn’t matter if you pass the course or not.
Step 5: You don't have to pay anything back until you earn over 27k pa

I am not sure about how the funding works but it got me thinking about a degree that i thought interesting.

Contemporary Circus and Physical Performance

"Bath Spa University

In this Bath Spa foundation degree, students can choose specialised modules in everything from acrobatics to physical theatre, with lots of theory thrown in. Modules include Critical Reflection and Philosophy of Circus, Performance, Movement, Voice and Creative Studies, and How to be a Self-Starter in the World of Circus."

Great for to become a professional politician.

They are changing the age when you get free prescriptions to the state retirement age, currently 67, so if they change it before you're 60, you will miss out.

That’s a bit like saying….. “Get in, just paid for my fancy funeral plan and getting the works, am I looking forward to that.” sctatchinghead
