How much you earn, bro

Appreciate I should run away with my tail between my legs at this point, but on the off chance this is a genuine offer of sex please pm me.

Who`d have thought, that in the later stages of his life, that Joey would use GOT to come out of the closet ?

It`s been a funny old week.

First we had @Johnny Barton, outing himself as the Crown Prince of Dubai and then Joey coming out of the closet, at the ripe old age of 87.

* I don`t know why but I keep thinking of Herbert the Pervert from Family Guy in relation to Joeys revelations.

I exist in a wonderful grey area where I earn slightly too much to qualify for the local first time buyers scheme, but not enough to actually pay rent and save a deposit at the same time. Stuck in limbo really, unless I was to move back into my parents house paying peanuts for rent as a fully grown adult man. I appreciate some people wouldn’t even have that option though so I’m not the least fortunate out there.

I moved back in with my mother for a couple of years when she was having health problems (now fully recovered). It wasn't so severe she needed full time care, but it was useful to be around and available a lot more. What I found was it accelerated the deposit saving process radically.

Even by necessity, best thing that happened re: house buying. Depends how well you get on with your folks I guess.

I think regardless of what we earn we are all being penalised some way or another. Inflation rising faster than cost of living wage rises. Sorry for stating the obvious, I think we are all aware of the situation, I suppose all we can do is manage better with what we have coming in and make better decisions.

I've just genuinely had the most disappointed moment of my life, certainly since my honeymoon night on 22nd July 1978, for years I had assumed I was retiring on my 66th birthday in April 2026, I even got a 4 year calendar on my wall where I tick off every day counting them down. I just seen the new Pension Dates on Google News and realise I got it wrong, it's April 67 I have to retire, I missed 66 by 4 days ? ?, off to join the OAP section of Tinder to find a rich old man.

I remember as a kid, grown ups looking forward to retiring at 50.

They want us dropping dead in work, so they don't have to pay us a state pension.

It's like the1970s winter of discontent, the only plus side we will not be sitting in the dark & our bins are still being emptied .....
People have to realise the war in Ukraine is causing a worldwide recession - very worrying as these recessions tend to get worse before they get better worldwide - the average working person will bear the brunt of it sad , but true ....

Pay is everything in these sad sorry times ...
