how desperate is your financial situation?

I'm a student. There's your answer :pac:

Still (+), but just about. Student loan is the likely route from here.

you dont know my cicumstances i was out of work at least 8 weeks since last summer 08,how would you manage?

i tried working hard paying my taxes as a plasterer and i did now i'm out of work cant get a factory job either, now i do the odd nixer but i dont have as much time now(generally give they nixer to a buddy he might throw me €20-50 if he makes a killing) as i took a job off a local farmer that i played a bit of golf with, meant to be 3 days a week €100 a day, just happened that things are going well and he now has more time on his hands to go to 1 or 2 more markets etc. so now i do 5-6 days a week cause he has the extra cash,but he knows i rather not work saturdays as i like to golf on sat morn, he can't afford to put me on the books insurance,holidays pay taxes etc.i'm doing my best for my family,trying to give them what i never had,
have a look at the guy working next to you or if you were told 35% to 50% of your office/factory or whatever were for the chop, as has happened in my trade i gaurentee you would not be interested in anyone bar no.1

Scum is the only word to describe you and youre sort. You are taking a 200 euro a week hand out each week aswell as the other benefits the dole while earning and additional 500 euro from work. I hop that you are caught out as you deserve it. There is doing what you need to do to enusure your families well being and then there is you. You should be ashamed of yourself.

Well you can't take it back, it's already posted. I think what you're doing is wrong, but I leave it up to you... and Welfare Officers.

BTW you should be worried, because you know loads in the same position as you, I know loads of being prosecuted for that. Social Welfare Department asked gardai help and they are checking random claimants together. It's not so bad if you're on Jobseekers Benefit, but if you have children or you are on Jobseekers Allowance - it's harsh.

I won't go over what everyone else has said about ^^ that, because I doubt it would make a blind bit of fcuking difference to you. But if I knew who you were, and where you lived - I'd shop you to the social so fast it would make your head spin.

Sure you are. It would seem that you thought boasting about how you screw the system would make you some internet hero and when you saw what people think of you, you attempt the old "Oh it was only a joke" defence. Noone is buying it.

soundsham · 24-07-2009 09:17PM

You obviously do if you went to the bother of trying to defend yourself, then trying to say it was all a joke.

*Wonders, if I email the relative bodies with a copy of your posts can they track you down. Looking at his post history it would be pretty easy to narrow down the area he lives in and I'm sure the owners of boards would be happy to hand over his IP. Hmmm, do I send it or not....

Perfect example of why welfare needs to be completely means tested, thats E200 a wk from the taxpayer, along with a med card and social housing, then a loss of tax on nearly e700 a week between the couple, yet they've huge savings, madness. Should be forced to live on the savings 1st and accounts reviewed

You can only be means tested on details provided about your income. Soundsham isn't paying taxes from the work hes doing. So hes holding back on paying tax the country needs, and yet taking it from those who do pay their taxes.

Its all take take take with this one.

Sofiztikated · 24-07-2009 09:41PM

Soundsham. I hate you. I truly do.

I have no savings, sorry, ?34 in the credit union, outgoing match my incoming, 3.5k on credit card, about 8k loan.

I'm ****ed, but job is secure(ish)

Hamiltonion · 24-07-2009 09:54PM

Thanks Abigail, I should've been clearer, I meant his savings should be taken into account. Any friendly mods like to get his IP address? Its the patriotic, moral, legal thing to do

Ah I see. Well afaik know they do ask you about this stuff. So either he didn't give the information regarding the savings, or he is telling porkies about the extra money

I just cant fathom how he thought this would go down well here tbph.

They don't seem to check peoples savings. I know loads of peopel who in the past have claimed while having large savings yet they didn't declare them.

Hamiltonion · 24-07-2009 10:05PM

Well with a name like soundsham

Hank Scorpio · 24-07-2009 10:06PM

Why would they be back onto me? I'm not claiming money illegally. I'm a poor student living week by week without the safety net of either the dole or 500 your cash in hand that you have. If anythign they may get back to me to say thanks.

soundsham · 24-07-2009 10:14PM

some sad fookers here thought i'd have a laugh, sorry i didn't keep it up now though
