    Yeah it does. Three stars on a winning streak ticket actually doubles your social welfare. Congrats.

    Sure what does it matter, everyone on that programme is already collecting their pensions anyway

    Yup, no more social welfare after that and the peeps from Winning Streak come round to your house and kidnap your kittens for a huge ransom. It's a murky underworld you're getting yourself involved with there, be careful.

    Indeed, every old person on that show is herded out the back of the RTE studio into a wasteland area where the celebrities bid on who can capture and torture an old person the most effectively. Tubs is the current reigning champion, his whippet like features make him effective against the more naturally slow aul wans. and his affinity for blue rinse and the smell of cabbage makes him a lethal predator once he picks up the scent.

    op if you can, run, and hope for a merciful death..

    Theres a clause in this social welfare-winning streak conundrum.

    It states article (2.a) if you slip a couple of fingers up Marty Whelans arse as you spin the wheel, you're welfare entitlements won't be touched. Honestly, check it out.
