10 Things That Happen When You Date A Hipster

8. They Don't Have A Lot Of Money

It would appear that these trend setters don€™t have as much money as their €œloadsamoney€ forebears from the financial services in the 80s and 90s, and as a consequence their spending patterns are driven by novelty rather than cost. Hipsters don't have much space: they share flats and apartments and even bedrooms. Without a lot of room for cups and saucers and dining rooms, it's easier to nip out to a cafe for breakfast. They save on ownership and travel light. They wear skinny jeans instead of suits. They may have one or two expensive electronic products, but on the whole they are less materialistic than their parents€™ generation. So bicycles over BMWs, right?

I love Stephen King and music festivals; I eat my toast upside down; I daydream about getting married probably a bit too much; and I wish every day for a pet sausage dog puppy (who never materialises – sob).
