It sounds to me that he had, for his entire adult life, a well paid job. Why the fuck didn't they have any savings?

She sounds like a spoilt brat.

You know what annoys me about this story?

They still have so many options. So they can't buy their coffee at Harrods anymore. Diddums.

Many people in their situation ie breadwinner losing his job, would not be able to afford any coffee full stop.

So she might have to get a job.

Double diddums.

They need to put it into perspective....

I don't know what to say about that feature. It makes my flesh creep in a way. How can she say that before the recession, everything was secure. It wasn't. Nothing is.

My God....have you no heart you lot?

The poor woman had to offer to sack her twice weekly cleaner FFS! Can you imagine? My heart goes out to them.

NOT.

It's amazing how some people manage to live in their own little bubble totally unaware of the real world going on around them.

Pffffft.

I know that she is in the DM so that readers will fume over her. And probably she said things like, "I know other people have it much harder..." but even so I feel a bit unwell. She sounds so shallow.
