I haven't been unemployed since my first paper round when I was 12 (luckily for me it was a long way from Jimmy Savile) and as such I have never claimed any sort of benefit. Me and the missus earn too much to claim child tax credits but I think the kids get the state basic child benefit which has gone into a savings account for them since day dot and unless the roof falls in it should remain un-touched until they are old enough to need the cash for university or a car (probably beer). So what are you scroungers on? Only reason I ask is that I think benefits are a wonderful thing in theory but far too many people are on them for spurious reasons. I know of a couple who are both on the sick and claim the other is their carer so they get sickness benefit and extras for carers allowance plus don't pay a penny for their rent. Nice gaff, not a Council house or in a block of flats too, all paid for by us that put in to the system. They spend EVERY day in the pub and smoke like chimneys. I have to deal with the public every day and regularly find entire families who don't work but their properties are full to bursting with gadgets, flat screen TV's, Blu-Rays, X-Boxes, i-phones and the like with a car parked out the front and none of them work. Beel over.
I'm on ESA and Housing benefit but only after being made redundant from my local council Kieran* will have you believe I scrounge but I've probably paid more tax than he has am I'm 10 years younger
I get about 30k a year ,more with tips and I spend my salary each month.. I rent in Maryland East London and have **** all to show for my last 18 years .. My parents have money and my Mrs is loaded so I don't really value money.. Honk Kong tomorrow then the rest of the week at my wife's apartment in Dubai.... I was laid off a couple of years ago and it was **** so I went to live in Spain for a few months until another casino vacancy opened up... If people need DSS then cool ,if they take the piss then let the ****s rot..Also unless you have paid a few years of Ni and tax you should get nothing.. Way too many people rinsing the system out who came here from abroad ,with no ties to the Uk...
If you like Gambol.... I work at Aspers Casino Stratford , I'm posting from China now and will be in Dubai in 2 days.... It's called a holiday.....
I live in Maryland E15 , one of the worst places in London.... If I wanted to invent a life I would have chosen Somewhere nice..... This is why you don't justify your existence on anonymous footy forums..... I doubt you even soiled your sofa pal...
My sexy new wife just made me a pitcher of Chivas Regal and green tea on ice..(yes I am a smug **** don't worry it will probably end badly)....... Maybe I will be harvested for organs before I leave CHN....?
That's my philosophy in life. They can have any of my bits they want but I'm spending a lifetime ruining them all.
My life is far from perfect I'm a 36 year old fat bald Norwich fan ,a functioning borderline alcoholic junkie with 3 kids from a failed relationship... I just happen to be on a hot streak lately.. The only reason I haven't been posting the last 11 months is I couldn't figure out how to change my IP address after Mick banned it.... The Mrs is packing our cases up for our flight tomorrow and its 107 am here pretty pissed...
After I dropped out of college I was a scruffy layabout on income support and housing benefit but I got bored with being poor so I got a job (after a few years). Was getting carers allowance for looking after me ma, the McMillan nurse persuaded me to apply for it as I hadn't bothered. Got too much in the bank/shares to get any other benefits, would hate to ever have to sign on again anyway, really demeaning.
I once went to the dole centre before with the intention of signing on. As I approached the entrance some young fella ran out the door being chased by an old women screaming at him. He jumped in his car and locked the doors while she banged on the windows, he then started the engine and took off. As I watched that old woman clinging onto that car and get dragged down the road screaming I realised that I just couldn't bring myself to join this group of people.
