I've recently been offered an electrical apprenticeship. However I received my contract in the post today and I saw that my wage is going to be ÂŁ2.65. I'm 19 years of age and have rent, car insurance etc to pay for so I was wondering am I expecting too much? Or as I'm thinking is this not enough?

PS... I know it is within the minimum wage for a first year apprentice I was just hoping for a little more considering my age.

THANKS!
 
I was on ÂŁ120 coming home in my first year of the apprenticeship in 1995,which I thought wasn't too bad.
was the same the next year though as we paid tax!!!!
i could of sworn when I had my garage that you had to be paid minimum wage anything older than 19?
not sure how that works out?
my boy is on ÂŁ5.50 an hour working in the local coffee shop for 5 hours a week part time so ÂŁ2.65 is appalling.
