    In my experience, online calculators aren't worth the cyberspace they inhabit, so i wouldn't set too much stall by an online calculator. According to the online calculator mentioned earlier, i should be in receipt of just less than £200 per week in benefits already, of which i would have to pay £23 per week towards rent and council tax. Pretty much the same when i was working, saying i was entitled to hb and ctb. Trouble is errr, real life?


    Blimey, thats £700 per month to live on. Positively rich.
    Debt free - Is it a state of mind? a state of the Universe? or a state of the bank account?
    free from life wannabe
