Is that all you're worth Mick? Christ! I thought you were waaay more than that from what you've said. I can safely ignore all your witterings then since I've achieved an enormous amount more than that even without benefit of your amazing intellect.CheersBobG
Good ol' capitalism. We wouldn't be in the top global 1% if capitalism hadn't conveniently made the other 99% in the rest of the world so crashingly poor. It's all relative.
So you really expect us to think that all the 99% of people below us are wealthy..?
So you start off by waffling about your personal wealth then it turns into national wealth when questioned.As I said in another thread, the gift that keeps on giving.
Nope not me. I own next to nothing, have next to nothing. do I care? Nope. have something much better than fancy goods and showy crap. I am twenty two days away from becoming a grandmother again. I would rather have that than anything.Oh and don't please try to convince me I am lying to myself, I'm not. I'm blessed.
the top one per cent now own half the world’s wealth while the bottom 50 per cent own just one per cent
Not wanting to put words in Glyn's mouth, but "we" and "us" often means "you and me" not the wider society/country.Quotethe top one per cent now own half the world’s wealth while the bottom 50 per cent own just one per centSo you think that is a good thing, just because you're in the top 1%? Just about sums you up!Socialist.
Hahahaha, you are having a laugh.. It would also seem that you have swallowed the propaganda hook line and sinker.. You can take 12k from that estimate. Do you even have any idea what carers allowance consists of?Best you do a little research. It just might surprise you.

It just might surprise you.I'm sorry but there is no way you are paying your way in this life (including housing benefit and council tax relief, carers allowance etc) on only £7000 per annum. Absolutely no way. I'd like (as I'm sure would others) a breakdown of how you are achieving this amazing feat.
Oh dear, are you calling me a liar again? I told you, I have nothing, I want nothing. Is that so hard to understand?I have never had a credit card, loans,or any of the major things that eat into most peoples incomes. I don't crave expensive goods, don't smoke, drink, run a car ect... We have done all this before.. Go back through your many, many posts you will find the conversation. The money hasn't changed, remember there hasn't been a real increase in benefits in years.The problem with society is that a person's worth is judged by their debts, by their goods and possessions.

Ok, per week Carers allowance.. £61.35Income support.. £45.25rent rebate £68.council tax £20.I never said I was getting £7k, it was you that chucked £22k into the mix.
There has obviously been some confusion over the £22000 and £19000 figures. Being a magnanimous soul I'm not going to try and wriggle out of giving you an apology. I hereby unreservedly issue an abject apology to Jucy. You are not rich by any stretch of the imagination and I wish you had more money to make your life more comfortable. You seem to have your priorities right and I'm sure you'll make an excellent grandma.
