My sister has a very decent amount coming in every month - similar to what I have as a professional with 10+ years experience.
However it's all top up earnings and she's on a low paid job two days a week.
She's quite happy to stay on 2 days even though all her children are at school.
Aibu to think she's foolish to rely on these topups and not try to get a better job or increase her hours? If they try to reform benefits she could very quickly be very poor and I'm concerned even if she isn't!
