For friggin' real!


"A Waikanae family who were worried how they would pay for Christmas have claimed the massive $15.6 million Powerball prize struck during the weekend.
In a statement, one of the winners said the family had been living week-to-week trying to get by.
"A week ago I didn't know how we were going to do Christmas this year, it really is a miracle come true."
The winner said that despite the massive windfall they would continue to keep working as they loved their job...."
You love a job that pays so poor that you can't afford Christmas?- are you bloody mental?
The gods DO look after fools and drunkards!

You are measuring people by your standards. Happiness is not soley about the money (but some sure helps for me). The balance point is a personal thing.

If he has 15 mill, he would not be on the dole, thus not a problem, meathead!

As for the first, of course I judge by my standards!

Your words...

I give him a tick for working, no matter how well paid it might be.

Oh, and in the interests of clarity I point out that he had the job before the 15M otherwise you'd also be clipping his ticket for buying lotto out of his benefit in addition to being "a fool and a drunkard".

Nope Ozzie, ya missed that one.
