Benefits Britain on 5

[les_taxi]

As this thread is about benefit cheats I will stick to that. I agree with the first 2 posters. I've been there and done it but I can proudly say I got off my .... and fixed it. In the 80's I was made redundant, was off work for nearly 18 months, managed no problem with the benefits I got but hated it. I found a job 2 hours travel away for half the amount I was getting on benefits. Most people would say that was stupid especially having a missus and 2 kids but it was the best thing I ever done.
so going from no work, no travel and being at home with no problems, I took 50% less money, traveled 4 hours there and back and worked 8 hours every day, it was tough but I was proud to do it! The kids also learned a good lesson about earning your keep.

Well done gm47 and well done to you for getting your life sorted. The stuff about rich people would be a separate thread.

Yes, Les ... you're probably right there,
