Only worth it if he's just planning on renting as the £6k may as well be 6p in the buying market with vast difference in prices between London and S Yorks.

London's not that much more expensive, if at all for anything other than houses and maybe the price of booze in pubs/bars.

Only mug tourists get ripped off with consumables.

Cheam is where you mean, I think.

£6k is not enough IMO to cover the increased cost of living. That's going on my experience of working in Finchley for 9 months before moving back up north with a rather large debt

Has he worked out the cost of the commute ?

e.g. Most people pay between £2.5k and £3.5k to commute into london (depends on distance obviously)

£3 to £4 a day on sarnies also
