How many weeks of your contract left?.......a mortgage debt or lifetime of rent is longer than most well paid people's salary, ask any politician......hope you chose the right firm to work for...past performance is no guarantee of future results, stay positive, it may never happen, whoops it has.

I have long suspected he was on minimum wage by the amount of boasting he does about his implausible salary (after being made redundant), his huge savings and his cash house purchase, which obviously doesn't fit with his desperation for rate cuts and house price rises. He should have at least made up a believable story. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With no mortgage to pay (apparently) he could save well over 75k a year depending his lifestyle. That would be about 3k per annum in interest in the bank so why is he crying out for rate cuts which states the obvious he's cheap fix is ending very soon. You are right he's been rumbled 👎🤣🤣 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pmax2020 Posted February 26 Share Posted February 26 We got 8% last year. No news on this year but I reckon it could be as low as 3% given where inflation allegedly now lies. I think I could get an additional raise if I ask my manager nicely. I, along with just one or two other people do about 90% of the work. I’m tempted to job hunt though… I fancy a change of scenery.

Deflation is getting more and more baked-in by the BoE's inaction. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well it wouldn’t cost them anything to point & laugh at the lack of ambition of a thief living off rest of society. Chocolate bars.. LOL Back in 2014 when I had to run a daily gauntlet of beggars near Reading station who got in the way of people actually doing something useful. One day I asked a drug addict where she was planning to go with the ‘bus fare’. She became angry. Good, I was angry about being badgered by these shameless sad sacks who didn’t appear to have the least concern for anything other than their next fix. I was minding my mind own business.

It’s entirely reasonable to be remunerated generously where advice pertains to large financial gains or prevention or mitigation of large losses. Being paid a lot simply because you interact with highly remunerated or wealthy folk is baseless & moronic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When no one offered to help him he wailed 'look i'm really trying...why can't any of you believe me....' I see no difference between him and those in Government wanting to tax folk even more then wailing 'but we are trying .....' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
