That's not bad then. You get a hugely uplifted state pension because you have lived on benefits!!

I though that only those that paid more in got more out. Someone earning NMW would get a lot less than someone who had a average salary of £100,000pa.

Doesn't seem to work that way.

I think we should all pack in work and try to get on the benefit roundabout - you seem to be quite well looked after.

Yeah why not? You can have my disability as well if you like.

PMSL when you family are benefit claimants claiming much more money for the length they paid in. Penny for Penny they are so far in the red it's silly!

I'd guess if you weren't trolling you'd be on benefits too!

A different boring old fart troll, you say?

Is he the one with the hopeless lumpy daughters - somewhere on the south coast.... that one's been going for years - slagging off anyone else claiming anything or earning everything while making up rather far fetched disabilities and claims?

Yes - I think so. But I'd forgotten the daughters.

they needed an extra payment because they liked the heating on all day, and sky all-day and a 5 bed council house - blimey is he still doing this 8 years later..... sky all day was an essential right and anyone else on benefits was apparently depriving them of cash they should get to lump.....

They are also appear to be receiving money they are not entilted to.

They appear to be receiving pension credits and mortgage interest support and council tax benefit. Pension credits due to having less than £10,000 savings and a high cost of living due to having a £88,000 mortgage, and mortgage interest support on the £88,000 mortgage, and due to getting pension credits they are getting council tax benefit.

When they are paying interest on only £8,000 due to having a offset mortgage with £80,000 in the account.

If it is a one account mortgage the £80,000 counts against the mortgage debt and they only have a mortgage of the outstanding £8,000.

If it is a seperate offset savings account the £80,000 counts as capital.

Maybe look closer to home when criticizing benefit claimants.

Nice! What a nasty piece of work - especially if it's the same guy who bred the lumpy daughters who tried to claim disability allowance to watch SKY as they were too stupid to be able to cope with anything more serious... wanting to watch sky all day isn't really a disability..... hope the OP feels reassured she's probably built up the contributions legitatimately (pensions are acturied on expected life expectancy) and the benefits system has some built in morals - because the majority of us recognise a long term illness is something the rest of society wants to recognise and values, even if accessing mainstream employment isn't feasible,
