Lottery Money Helps People Off Benefits.
I love the way this is put ,
Colin, 64, had previously worked as a television cameraman and Chris, 55, is a fully-trained psychiatric nurse. So both unemployed and claiming tax payers cash to fund their eating and gambling habbits.......grrr http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-14161661 They say that they're going to spend some of the money on a nice traditional Scottish restaurant, McDonnalds. |
Re: Lottery Money Helps People Off Benefits.
Thats a bit mean isn't it?
You don't know what 'serious' health conditions they have which stops them from working. For all you know the fella could have had a quadruple heart bypass, and the missus some debilitating spinal damage. So they eat well, could do with going on a diet maybe, but just because they are unemployed could mean absolutely anything They should give it all to me ;) |

You're right again DB, they're "role" models.

One report I read said she'd been a nurse for something like 30 years.
Good on her I say, can honestly say I doubt I'll still be working in the NHS in 30 years time. Gambling habits - they might only have played that one draw for all you know. I think if I won that much money I'd stay anonymous. |
Re: Lottery Money Helps People Off Benefits.
That is very unfair, i rarely play the Euromillions and like millions of others i did this one time, like others have said for all we know this is the first time they played purely because of the size of the prize, either way she say she bought 5 lucky dips so only a tenner, hardly a fortune ****ed up the wall is it??

You miserable git BBD :p
I have a friend who was a nurse dealing with the terminally ill / life supported, he was off work for 6 months because of depression, he needed to change profession in the end and is now a landscape gardener even though he's well qualified to be a staff nurse....I say give the woman a break with what she'll have dealt with in her profession.....there are much less deserving winners than them out there....one national lottery winner comes to mind! Good luck to them....if only they could throw me £50K, that's pocket change to them now and would sort me out properly! |
Re: Lottery Money Helps People Off Benefits.
I hate scroungers as much as the rest but come on! They own their own house and stuff not the typical free DSS housing. Plus that also suggests they have worked for a while if they managed to buy their own house.
Give them a break. |
Re: Lottery Money Helps People Off Benefits.
My mums been a psychiatric nurse for nearly twenty years. She left the profession yesterday as it happens. She can't be doing with management anymore, as it has less and less to do with the patients.
My bro works in the outreach teams in a similar role with some very needy patients, very very tough job. I'd challenge anyone to step in his shoes, when people are trying to set fire to their beds, or jump from high windows etc. If either my mum or brother won the Euromillions like this, I'd be jumping for joy, as I know from experience how hard a job it is, and this woman who 'if' she has done it for 30 years, has most likely had a hard slog before 'unemployment'. |
