I had to LOL when an old hag came on from the "Land of Let them eat Cake" and was gushing about how marvellously her two 30ish offspring were doing and how tiresome it is that "these discussions 'Come up from time to time with no basis to them".

Three times the presenter forceably asked what these lucky two do for a living and the hag refused to answer. Just about sums this country up - The have nots and the scamsters and leachers.

Thanks, replayed that bit (21 minutes in). Does seem a little ironic...so much better off than we were, earning twice as much, but actually sharing a pad with four other professionals...doesn't sound that fantastic an arrangement.

I think the trouble with her claim that they earn so much more hasn't taken into account lifetime aggregates and debt. They appear to have spent all their time in their twenties doing the skiing bum thing and Uni and if they have finally gotten around to getting a job in their thirties they need to earn at least twice as much to catch up for the missing 15 years of work and debt and house prices....a nd they will still be worse off.
