I have experience of approaching the CAB for legal advice re money owed to me. They were wrong.
I've got sprogs ranging from 15 months to 24 years.
I've never been rich, but no matter how skint I've been I've always put something away each month, even uf only a fiver, and I've always paid into a pension, even when I was so skint that the day before pay day I was reduced to eating bread and butter only, or salt sandwiches if I was feeling really cosmopolitan so the kids could eat done thing halfway decent.
I know what it's like to cycle 8 miles with the young un in a crossbar child seat to take her to my mums cos i was too skint to run a car or pay for a taxi, then cycle to work, do a night shift, then go collect my daughter and cycle her home and onwards to school.
I didn't like it but I never wasted my breath moaning, and not once did I even jokingly consider that life on benefits might be easier.
My incentive was to better myself, improve my lot in life, secure my future and - most importantly - set an example that you get out of life what you put in.
I'd give my left nut for sone free taxpayer funded hand outs thank you. Stop moaning and invest that effort into improving your lot, because the only person holding you back is YOU.
Up to you. Why don't you 'choose' not to work then and see how much people respect your sponging attitude.I do exactly as you are saying here. Ill say this again my rant is at the system I have always worked hard. The thought of not going to work and staying at home is alien to me. But there's times when Ive had a crap day and haven't seen my daughter for three days and I ring tax credits and get this information I think I'd be better off not working.

Your noble self-sacrifice has probably allowed some rich guys to have reeeely nice pocket lining, though.I'd give my left nut for sone free taxpayer funded hand outs thank you..
