I've had enough , just been told about my mates house , he dont work and has just landed a new 3 bedroom house in woodstock down the road from me.

 

I pay a fortune to live in a nice area like this and he gets it for nowt, he gets to stay at home all day watching frickin sky and playing wow , he even has a 3000GTO.

 

Gonna put my business's in familys name and the same with the house and then resign as director go unemployed and rent my house off family member and let benefits pay for it.

 

His house has even got aircon and a jacuzzi

I remember saving really hard for my first house, i think I was on 17k at the time, maybe less. Got a nice end terrace 3 bed (39k - those were the days!!!). It wasn't easy keeping it, bills always a worry, no funds to develop it. My neighbour opposite was perfectly healthy but chose not to work. He was always doing stuff to the house (even though it was council), he had a nice car, had constant parties it really did make me wonder what was the point of working. For me though, its about betterment, getting ahead, being proud for what you achieve. When you see these stories about 5, 6, 7+ bedroom house given out though because someone wanted 20 kids that really makes my blood boil.

 

The cost of living is really shooting up as well, I'm on a good wage and I'm noticing the bills rising, food more expensive, cars cost a fortune to run and my payrises dont seem to keep up. I did have my annual bonus this month but lost 5k of it to tax!!!! Gutting.

This is a tricky subject and I have real mixed views.

 

I earn ok money but lose £1.3k a month on tax and NI, I pay £6k a year for a train ticket and cant get a seat for that, leaving at half 6 and rarely getting home much before 7.30, I have one of my daughters living with us as she is saving every penny desperatley trying to do the right thing and get a house.

 

It makes my blood boil when I hear that her mate she went to school with who has never worked has just been given a council owned flat in a nice area of town for her and her kid. This was because the council house she was living in with her dad who been on benefits for the past 26 years I know of, was getting too crowded.

 

So, yes it makes my blood boil that this trash are getting what I cant by doing nothing apart from dossing around smoking roll ups, dope and drinking special brew all day, spending their days watching Jeremy Kyle to see if they recognise anyone on there. But I could never just sit around and do that or want to be seen to be like them, the life style these people lead makes me recoil when I think about it. Yes I am jealous that they have all day to do the stuff I would love to do rather than sitting on a train for hours sometimes just to get to work and when I get there having to bow and scrape while trying to work hard dealing with complete f*.*wits who come from the complete opposite end of the scale to the people discussed here.

 

BUT, I have always believed that what we are doing is the right way, however naive that is or may sound in view of what the scum who do naff all throughout their lives do. I have tried to raise my kids to believe this is the correct way and you only get what you work for, but they like you Biguns have started to question this morality and as torn as I am I can see where they are coming from. But for me at least, I would hate to be tarred with the same brush as the dole dossing scum we seem to have nurtured over the past 30 years or so.

 

I agree with you, yes it makes you want to give up, but on the other hand, do you really want to be in the same catagory as them, relying on the state and the poor sods who get up and go to work every day?

 

Long post, sorry.

So you'd rather have had a payrise, and let many Libyan civilians get massacred because they wanted to choose how their country was run? There are plenty of things the gov should stop wasting our money on, but that isn't one of them.

 

You mention you know a drug dealer who has it easy? He only has it easy because people have stood by and let him get away with it. Go and shop him.

charity starts at home, i feel that we shouldnt force our countries believes on countries that may not be evolved enough to be sivel about it, the rebels out there could easy kill gaddafi if they worked together, im not saying its right what he is doing but we should keep our nose out of other people bussiness. if they didnt have oil we would not be helping FACT!
