Driving up/down to Aberdeen on Saturday I seen two that had typical bitter graffiti spray painted over them and another one yesterday on the way to/from Dundee. Classy.

When I met my wife 20years ago, I was in debt from a couple of business side ventures alongside my career when I was running a number of pubs and a sales business which went belly up. After that experience all I had was the clothes on my back and debts to pay back which I did. No one gave me a hand out. I made my own luck. The harder I worked the luckier I got. IMHO Anyone can become financially independent in this country if they have a burning desire and are willing to make some sacrifices along the way. It’s so easy to invest in the great companies of the world with low cost platforms to earn enough returns to gain financial independence. Just £25 invested each month for a new born kid into a global tracker Stocks and Shares ISA with returns of 10% would result in £959,000 by aged 60. Obviously you need to factor in the effects of inflation which is the silent killer on that money once you get to 60, but I wish I knew the power of compound interest when I was growing up. If you set up a Pension for new born you even get a 20% uplift automatically. Some people easily spend twice that for a mobile phone contract, or Sky. Eighteen year olds now qualify for Lifetime ISA benefits that the Government will uplift by 25% on £4,000 per year. Free money that we never got. Its easier than ever to become a millionaire in this country. Normally, I would agree with the sentiment here but there's too many people struggling for it to be this simple. We're talking about millions of people struggling - not just the odd one or two "lazy bastards". This pattern is repeated in every country in the world. I think the bit in bold is the source of your logical flaw even though that's exactly what I did as well. You're being overly simplistic about the root of the problem and how to fix it.

I don't have the time or the crayons to explain this to you. What's up, can't you afford the crayons? You get SO defensive when issuing the insults. You made your point well enough and then showed your true self with the bitchy wee comment. Worse still, you disrespected your wife in a later comment. You might have made some money in the 21st century but your oppressive views show you are firmly anchored in a previous one. I'm happy to disagree with you and let lie without making childish comments, maybe you should develop the intellect to help you get to the happy point in your life when you can argue a point without being a dick.

If you or the crayon muncher can tell me what is the female equivalent of a Man Cave which my wife had erected in our garden last week I will gladly change the term I used! Wow, that really set you off. Given your referrence to hinge-oiling the above comment doesn't really fit the notion of a newly-erected structure. Maybe my mistake was reading your posts in their entirety and coming to the wrong conclusion, or maybe you meant something entirely different when you talked about oiling the hinges. We'll probably never know, eh? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is that last comment a sexual euphemism? Indeed, your opener there seems open to interpretation But I’ll decline the offer made at the start of sentence 2, thanks very much. And just so we are clear, if you have a man cave then I have no interest in entering it or squirting lube around your entrance Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Happy now? I've never been unhappy, not recently anyway. Even so, I'm fair cheered up now that we have sorted all that out. Call it what you want.

I'd have given both to Greens had they stood in the constituency. My wife voted SNP twice and my daughters voted Lib Dem and Greens. Last election, the SNP gained 8 votes from my family. Now they only got 3. That makes Labour the only mainstream party who I have never voted for in any election. I have to be honest, I have struggled to maintain an interest in this election and it's been many years since I felt that. Nobody is offering anything exciting. Nobody is saying anything remotely sensible over covid and the timing of the push for Indyref2 (only 7 years after the last one) has left me feeling cold.

This is exactly why we need away from these clowns, Hartlepool is NOT a modern, swinging urban utopia but rather a Northern (southern for us) working class area with all the social problems that come from governmental neglect. Despite all this, they still vote Tory. We need away. f**kit lets do it this afternoon as soon as SNP win the election up here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
