I grew up in post communist country, we were poor even if my parents work fulled time and then after work on my grandparents farm. This women from video is not poor! Look at her apartment... She probably can't afford all she wants but that's not poverty. Example spotted. Her freezer is full of fries, its several times less expensive to buy potatoes and cut them... She is not poor, she just want life of rich people. She said she work 5 days a week but how many hours? She said, she has 3 kids, where is dad? She is not that young, so I guss those kids might be in age, that you can work part time. I was Woking as a teenager. No shame on that, I was proud of myself. I am 37 now and earn quite a lot now, I was alway learning and working a lot. First jobs were like 1-1.5eur/hr. bus ticket at that time was 0.5eur... This is poverty, not what that women presents. She even said, we not look like poor but we are, nope she is just not poor.
@@baassiia Exactly, we've been programmed to believe that 39hrs a week doing fairly non-descript jobs should be enough to get you everything the modern media and big business tells you should be the norm.
She doesn't want to live rich, she's struggling to live in lower working class. Having fries in the freezer hardly means she's trying to live rich and, unfortunately, not everyone knows how to cook from scratch. I cook 90% from scratch and have 85p left for this month, as we had extra outgoing this month. It's not usually this tight, but we never have anything leftover. I shop smarter than most, but basic, unprocessed foods for the most part ,utilise things like dried beans, lentils, and basic rice to stretch meals, I've been making bread products at home, bulk make things for the freezer when I can, forage berries in the summer to freeze or turn into homemade jam.....frugality isn't even enough.
@@MrsBrit1 when you don't earn much you have to cut something, that's all. I don't think peeling potatoes is difficult. Instead of buying she can do it on her own. You can also think about moving to smaller place - less to heat etc. It's not great but it is what it is. I grew being poor but we were never hungry as my parents were resoursfull, I mean they know how to menage poverty. We eat what was seasonal (cheapest) and honestly food was great - home made. Making excuses - maybe she can't cook, is funny as she should learn!
@@jarodarmstrong509 And that is not the case in America and most country's so your argument is invalid ! This is just another false accusation to defend the current criminal system. This is what right wingers mostly do ! Blame all the corruption sinds Ronald Reagan to the people like it is their own fault !
Working in unskilled labor jobs that were never designed to support a person, what do you expect? Not every job is there to support a household. People are working in supplemental employment expecting it to pay the entire cost of living. Thats just not the way it works. You need to get an education that provides you with a skill that pays all the bills!
High prices for everything have severely affected my plan. I'm concerned if people who went through the 2008 financial crisis had an easier time than I am having now. The stock market is worrying me as my income has decreased, and I fear I won't have enough savings for retirement since I can't contribute as much as before.
It's recommended to save at least 20% of your income in a 401k. You can use online calculators to estimate how much you should save based on your age and income. Saving at least 20% of your income in a 401(k) can help ensure that you have enough money to retire comfortably. By saving this much, you can take advantage of investing in the stock market and potentially grow your retirement savings over time.
It's often true that people underestimate the importance of financial advisors until they feel the negative effects of emotional decision-making. I remember a few summers ago, after a tough divorce, when I needed a boost for my struggling business. I researched and found a licensed advisor who diligently helped grow my reserves despite inflation. Consequently, my reserves increased from $275k to around $750k.
Certainly, there are a handful of experts in the field. I've experimented with a few over the past years, but I've stuck with ‘’Melissa Terri Swayne” for about five years now, and her performance has been consistently impressive.She’s quite known in her field, look-her up.
What makes my blood boil, is that the minimum wage goes up, then guess what! All the household bills go up AT THE SAME TIME! So how are we benefiting from it! The government doesn’t say that, do they!
Your not supposed to live forever on minimum wage your supposed to use it as a stepping stone to a better job, most minimum wage jobs are held by students and immigrants who have no qualifications yet, if your middle aged and haven't figured out how to learn a trade or skill that earns you more than minimum wage that is literally a choice that you have made for yourself.
@@randomdude_2000but that's not how it works, I remember min wage being £5.25 I was on nearly £9 Nowadays I'm on £12 and min wage is now £11.20 I think. You can't work your way out of this, crabs in a bucket everyone is being dragged down by min wage increases. I'm considerably poorer than I was 10 years ago. I longer do anything more than the bare minimum, no overtime, nothing. No incentive to.
I seriously don't get why you vote for the people you vote. They are your enemies, and you don't even realize it. In Hungary we pay around 32 pounds per month for heating. And that's for a big apartment, okay we don't heat the kitchen. I really don't understand what's going on in England. Massive crime, flooded by migrants, seriously, move to Hungary, if you can get a good job here.
In Hungary we pay around 32 pounds per month for heating. That's a big house, okay we don't heat every room and the kitchen, but it's enough. Electricity is 12 pounds with a tv and a computer running all day. Water is a bit more expensive with the sewage together it's around 37 pounds. Healthcare system is 25 pounds. And these are all monthly. I guess these prices are okay.
Look it up, he’s making multiples more than the wage bill of the House of Commons and lords summed up. That’s where your rent money is going, fat cat CEOs and bankers.
If only our government didn't spend billions on an excel spreadsheet over COVID. I'd have made an excellent spreadsheet that worked for £5m and a top shelf twix
And how many MPs are on boards of directors, have 'advisory' roles for hundreds of thousands for just a few days work? They're paid because their MPs it's clearly corrupt.
I remember my childhood in Poland looked exactly like this. People were working but many didn’t have enough money for a decent life. It’s very sad to see that the same situation is taking place in countries that for most of my life I considered rich and with higher life standard.
Back in the 70's and 80's , it was not unusual for polish people to arrive to the UK to work due to higher wages. Heck even in Denmark, it was very common up until the mid 2010´s to have polish workers everywhere doing construction, electricians, and so on. Now they are mostly gone, there are still a small amount of polish workers, but they are not working class. Tech heavy talents working in the IT-sector.
These people all have the latest phones and tvs in every room 😂this isn't the same at all😂they go on holidays and the lot. To compare English people to people in a war torn country is ridiculous
it is intentional to keep people poor as a way of controlling them. they cant leave, they cant do anything. education is restricted greatly. imagine everyone having access to obtain a degree. you lose full control over them. they can go to any country with their degree and work better paying jobs.
Yep, men don’t put up with not enough. They find a way to get more. The problem here is all the single mothers who thought the grass was greener on the other side and left stable, functional family units to then end up in poverty, and cry poor!!
@@filmntvguy1977 what an ignorant and narrow minded comment. Even 2 parent families are struggling. For many people in this country, work doesn’t pay and it’s been like this for a number of years.
I work 5 days a week but cannot afford a studio flat let alone decent one bed. Everyone deserves a privacy! UK became one giant crumbling house with a cruel landlord.
Down under the same. We know Jesus though and follow Him and His Word (not religions which are only man made) . Flats are almost impossible to get now. However one of my sons rents and each time we have prayed the Lord has given him 3 flats while dozens of other people were hoping to get them. The first nice one bedroom was eventually sold but he had it for quite a long while. The second was a nice one bedroom quite big for one person but not that big for two and right by the beach with lovely greenery outside. He recently married and now they have a child. The landlady said he could stay but it had stairs.. The third flat/house he is in now is a stones throw from the beach too and lovely sea views and 2 bedroom. They got it ahead of many others. All his places in this pretty coastal town not far from us are because we asked Jesus as He is our Lord and Saviour. Praise God. The rent is quite high and they can't afford a house but I'm praying for a house or just a small piece of land. I feel so sad and sorry for people who miss out on a flat and I pray for them too. God is amazing though and Jesus takes care of us. Repent of sin folks if you want heaven entry and commit to Jesus and His Word the bible and walk with Him daily. You have to go through trials but He answers prayers for his born again children. You have to be born again through being sorry for sin and turning to Jesus only.
It's just as if it has something to do with a word that starts with *I* and ends with *migration* .... Just as if they want to get as many people into the country to force the wages down and force the prices up (due to more demand) to create more revenue for businesses.
No it is not , you are the reason the UK is in the state it's in. Open your eyes for goodness sake and wake up to what is happening, you are being led into believing that what you are living in is the new normal, it's not and most countries are looking on in shock and pity.

@@FeralDuckyI have no empathy for the poor in Britain given how Britain keeps our people in abject poverty. Goes to show the benefits of its eternal plundering is not benefiting the common people. British companies own 70% of our mines. They control our government. Lonmin gave the Marikana massacre order to Cyril Ramaphosa. The interfere in our politics. Phil Craig a British national wants to make the Cape independent of Azania. The arrogance. He needs to return to Britain. Many British own palatial homes here. You have a problem with poor immigrants, we have a problem with your wealthy ones.
My mom got up 2 hours before us to start a fire in the wood heater outside. That also heated the hot water for us to get ready for school (Hardy Wood Heater). She’d gotten dad off to work, before we woke, while still dark out. A Railroad worker, he was gone a lot, sometimes a week at the time. She packed our lunches with a handwritten note, and little picture she’d draw us. She then sat our clothes out, on a chair, and our bath towel laying over the back rest, all near the den’s oil heater. She’d make us breakfast if we wanted it, and even put our back packs on our backs, and complained of how heavy they were, that we had to lug them, and we hugged and kissed her telling her they were fine, and off to wait on the rural county bus. Then she got ready for work, serving school lunches at a Private School in another county. She was never to tired to cook us a full supper, each night and complete the cycle. I miss her everyday. No one will ever love me the way that woman loved me, never again in my life. And she died way too soon to reward her for being such an amazing mom. The night before she died, she was ordering my wife and I, our Christmas Presents, for a Christmas she wouldn’t live to see. Lord, thank you for letting me get these words out❤, I haven’t mourned her properly. Shock is giving way to grief now, and as I’m always late, it’s years later, and I’m alone working in Chile, left with my thoughts. Homesick for a home in MS that is long gone now. When my brother died, at 17 in a car accident on his way to work, they found all those letters in a Cedar Chest in his room. Even my notes. He made notations on some of them(last day of school, Kyle’s Birthday, my birthday, day before Vacation!, day after Kyle’s Soccer Championship, etc. I was the richest poor boy in Mississippi, because of her. RIP Mama RIP Joey
If you want to move in my state you need to pay first, last and sometimes extra for security. You also have to pay a non-refundable fee to just fill out an application. Also the new thing now that landlords are somehow getting away with is requiring renters to make 3xs the amount of their rent. Which is not only absurd but criminal. But I don't see anyone doing anything to stop it.
@mariarohmer2374 I'm from Austin originally, but now live west of the city. I know exactly what you're talking about and it's ridiculous. I used to think I was making a decent salary, but now, I have to pay almost my whole check to rent (with all the fees added) and never have money left over for anything else. I'm 50 years old and am actually getting scared of where I will end up. I truly am poor now, and most likely will have to get a second job just to make the rent.
@@lemonhead162 That makes me so sad. I'm sorry to read this. I do understand. Too many people in their 50's or older are finding themselves priced out of housing. They work, they want to pay for housing but cannot. Or like you they spend all their money on rent. The government or private endowments need to be more proactive in finding answers and helping. It's not impossible to start by telling landlords they cannot pull these greedy scams. IDK why more people aren't talking about this. It's affecting so many. A solution is not impossible either.

Ok so who's fault is it you want to live where rich people live 😂you people sound ridiculous. It's the capital of England of course it will be expensive
the level of corporate greed in the UK is appalling. pay is low, which means the higher ups collect on peoples backs. worst of all, you have a government that does not promote education. why do these people not have an option to go on welfare, and while on welfare, take university courses an get a degree?
I was working full time In palliative care, and became homeless!! And I was told tough luck by the council . I now stay at home with my baby, I went back to work 3 months after a c section .. I will not be rushing back to work, I laugh when people try to shame me for not working, broke my back looking after the most vulnerable people and told to f off when I needed help .. never again.
Taking care of a baby is not doing noothing. Childacre is work. No reasonable person should shame you for being lazy. It is the opposite: taking care of a baby is very demanding and extremely important work. In a fair society, you should be paid for that.
@@samuela-aegisdottir "Taking care of a baby is not doing noothing." It is literally insane that some people believe that it is. They wouldn't be around, themselves, if someone hadn't put in the work and effort of raising them (and, for those who believe that childcare isn't work, it's a shame that people bothered).
@@janetmalcolm6191 Early on in lessons, I often show pupils a couple of houses and ask how much they reckon the parents of a mate of mine paid for one in the late sixties.. I then explain why the game of Monopoly was invented, and some of the reasons why high house prices are a bad thing.* I've only had one person get the price correct. The same house, IF it had kept pace with wages, it would be about £115k to £125k now, but about 2 years ago one went down the same road for £750k. * Despite idiot newspapers crowing about them going up, as they have been told that that's a sign of a good economy, and never bothered to think about it for themselves. Ironically, often, it's the same newspapers that whine about too many immigrants and a declining native population, not seeing (or choosing not to see) the connection.
What about the illegal; and the illegal immigrants; they like having large numbers of children; and many of them are not wealthy enough to afford having several children?
In the bad old days, “great” Britain would just raid and loot the resources and savings of other lands but now you must get past their improved defenses.😅
Remember you will own nothing but be happy. Your not to supposed to have a life outside of work. Look at how they increase the pension ages in the hope that less people will live to enjoy that time. Its a way of slowly getting rid of retirement altogether.
That’s exactly what I thought, but there’s so many people struggling, I’m working full time and still live with my mum as I can’t afford to move out, it’s never been that bad before!
As a retired support helper, I’d say the best job right now is working from home for an investment manager who hires you to handle records. I make over $390k a year. You just need the right connections and contacts to land a job that could change your life and your family’s future

At least in portugal PM gets a salary of aroung 7 times the minimal wage which is not a lot considering the position and responsibility. The problem is corruption, laws designed to favour the wealthier and not the 99%. Politics are the pcrostitutes of the capitalism we live in.
We have corruption imo because of our culture (from regular people to politicians) and exactly because they get paid sh*t, so when someone offer you 75k€ they accept without thinking. Is same thing with dr*gs on airport,shipyard ect when you earn 1000-1500€ 5+k€ seems like a lot Ect ect
I get what your saying but the problem is you want smart people leading the country. They should make it more open how much their total renumeration is from all the little deals they do.
The wages we received is not enough to settle our expenses, we keep killing our self on salary putting hope on pension to take care of our self at old age it's not fair.
You're absolutely right, to be a successful in life required not only hard work but awareness and sometime opportunity at the moment, investment remains the best way to start.@@deyinlukas-nj5hc

If it is any comfort...it is exactly the same situation here in New Zealand. The working poor in this country rises every year. The rich get richer the poor are invisible, rents have just gone up, landlord's are supported by the government, renters are ignored. You do your best while knowing it won't get any better any time soon, if ever. Good luck.
We need a capital gains tax. It's disgraceful that rich foreigners from fascist countries move here and become our landlords, owning multiple homes, while born Kiwis will never own a home or even be comfortable.
Canada is also deteriorating rapidly, a third world dumping ground with rising inflation and unfettered immigration. House prices and rents are rising to unaffordable levels. Our useless politicians at the Federal level are driving us into the ground with bad decisions and wasteful spending.
I used to live in London for 7 years. That was 12 years ago. Came back last summer to celebrate friend's bday and couldn't believe my eyes. The energy is off, most of the people looked grey and sad, food prices almos doubled. A lot of very old people working physical jobs and at the same time huge restaurants closing some parts as they aren't fully staffed. And that was my beloved vibrant city of London, hard to imagine how rural areas function...
@@Cocoisagordonsetter Person above is talking absolute nonsense & complete scaremongering. London is exceptional, world class city and richest in Europe. Not sure what area/people they are talking about but doesn't reflect my experience living in London for last decade. If you live here and can't get a good job/income it's on you not the system.
London is an 80% brown mono-culture. it is a hollowed out ethnic welfare city funded by the silent white majority who never wanted the disaster of diversity. White flight also from Birmingham.
The country has gone on a total decline. My friend said as much. When you come back you see the difference. Even the House of Lords has said we have regressed not progressed. 14 years of Tories. Shameful.
Imagine IF everyone called and cancelled their wifi, cable, sky and cell phone subscriptions tomorrow & replaced their expensive phone contracts with "burner/basic" phones. If everyone left their cars in the garage and stopped buying petrol/gas/diesel, using public transport, bikes or walking. IF every single citizen turned OFF their electricity at the same time and turned OFF the gas heating for intermittent weeks. If everyone made the decision to TAKE control & NOT be held to ransom by big businesses and governments, these businesses would collapse. The only way to hold these people accountable is to play them at their own game and hold THEM to ransom, the same way they hold you to ransom with their threats to cut you off. I'm old enough to remember the miner's strikes back in the mid-70s, it went on for 7 weeks and we all had to use candles and torches for 7 weeks when we had no choice, we just got on with it. These days, the solar-powered technology, available would make it so much easier.
@@john-fr5yd Saving habits? What do they save every week? I'm not sure what you mean by lavish lifestyles... I don't see that in this video. If those who are in poverty buy marijuana or something similar, it is to escape reality.

If someone has an extra $30, they want an immediate escape because that is more tangible than some long term goal that they don't see as possible.
This government is a total and utter disgrace and instead of trying to help people Sunak just came up with yet another cruel way to go after the poorest of the poorest
@@CourageUnderFire87 Governments need to make people poor in order to control them, raise armies and navies, and to create hoards of workers. Money was created to keep you poor - not to make you rich.
Everyone’s been preaching investing lately as a source of passive income but with a 70 hour weekly jobs and limited knowledge of financial instruments, how can I actually stay on top of things, I see every UA-cam video saying BUY BUY! But when and how do I sell for profit at the right time?
I agree! That's why it is advisable that you have to invest while you still have a regular job or earning a regular income, and do it constantly. You still need to have something that will keep you going even if you're investing. Good financial planning and money allocation is the key.
The best course of action if you lack market knowledge is to ask a consultant or investing coach for guidance or assistance. Speaking with a consultant helped me stay afloat in the market and grow my portfolio to about 65% since January, even though I know it sounds obvious or generic. I believe that is the most effective way to enter the business at the moment.

I work as a Plumber at a military base where they house 1700 of the immigrants that have just come across the channel illegally.. and i can tell you..they are blasting out the heating 24/7. All free, paid by you guys and me. Absolutely disgusting
Also... they do daily trips for the immigrants to the local towns so they see something else other than the dull army base .. Chelmsford, Ipswich, colchester, Braintree etc..around 10 mini buses full of immigrants get dropped off in the towns and picked up afew hours later.. and one time the security on the base was telling me they do random searches of their rooms, incase they are hiding weapons or drugs and they found a bag full of handbags and wallets that they had stolen on the days trips. It's absolutely disgraceful our government is letting this happen. Basically shipping these immigrants into our peaceful towns..and they are robbing people and shops. They are also coming to these bases straight from the boats in Dover with all kinds of diseases that we haven't even had in this country for decades. They get free food and drink all day.(which they complain constantly that its bad) Something like £30 daily allowance each which they send home to their families. Free cigarettes. They had the Heating on full blast over the winter months while my 90 year old Nan down the road is freezing to death cos she cant afford the heating on... It's a all Male immigrant camp and we finding used condoms everywhere. This post will probably be removed. But it's the truth. RAF Wethersfield.
I'm a 23 y.o nurse living in the Netherlands (originally from Portugal). I am now renting my own place (that can suit 2 people but the landlord only accepts 1 person to live here). I could NEVER be financially independent at this age in Portugal (and specially being single). But seeing housing prices here getting higher, I’m starting to panic because how will I ever be able to buy an house independently? In any country really? I can’t stay in this apartment forever. Adult life is getting more difficult by the day… I’m scared of the future.
Overtime. Upskill. Until you have had enough of it emotionally. Then return to Portugal. Because the potential for savings is shrinking, all of the time. The same everywhere. At some point in time it will be a pointless treadmill.
I still earn a similar wage to what I earnt in 2001 meanwhile the cost of everything has trebled. Our government is taking us for granted, they like to tax us more to pay for people who don’t work. In this country your either that rich that you don’t care or everything is free if you decide not to work. The people in the middle of it all are the hard workers that earn an average wage and have nothing left every week, it’s disgraceful. We pay for rockets for other countries to fire at each other whilst our own armed forces are depleted. If we went to war all our children would be forced to defend us whilst said government would retreat to their bunkers. I really am ashamed of my own country
Nothing is for free! Maybe looks at how much people get on benefits. They have work commitments they have to meet or they loose money! How many people do you really think choose not to work ? May look at your MPs and what they get in expenses and payouts before you start attacking the worse off in this country! MPs get more in a week than most people on benefits get in a year!
INflation is getting worse. You are not wrong. But most folks (USA) do NOT know that France gave MILLLIONS to the state of Louisiana, after Hurricane Katrina in 2005. There were donated funds from one at least international charity as well.
Bro, if in 23 years you haven’t managed to earn more money, you share a big portion of the blame. In 2001 I made maybe 20k while going to school full time, today I make 6 figures, that didn’t happen overnight it was a lot of work and risk.

I remember the UK was putting all refuges in a 4 stars hotels for weeks. Cannot understand why they don't take care of their own citizens in the beginning... It's pathetic.
I remember I 'paid' a premium price to stay at marriot in oxford, for two nights there were refugees put up in the hotel. one of the men would sit near the reception doing nothing just sitting and ogling at women i felt really uncomfortable and then for both nights there were kids running around and someone even fiddled with my room lock. imagine paying taxes and indirectly funding this. I am an immigrant myself but people like this only make it more difficult for refugees that really need help and for other financial immigrants like us who just want to live pay taxes be a part of the community and then go back to our home countries when we retire.
Update. Some 5 stars hotels now included. And some of the young men from France stay in the hotels for years. Limitless budget for this apparently. Meanwhile most refugees, those who have escaped to safe countries neighbouring actual war zones, don't even seem to be part of the UK elite's discussion.
At least your country have food banks that can assist you with food. Here in South africa we don't if the churches does not help. You left to your own devices. There is a stigma that there is only certain people without food but reality is most people
4m is if he , any one of his employees or company screws up, his career is finished, it’s after dinner speaking and sound bite for a random news story. If you had that arrangement (failure is final), I’m sure your number would be high 6 figures as compensation.
I own a property that I rent out, and the price to buy the property is calculated on 15 years of full rent(IMO) then I have to pay tax on the rent I receive ,apart from any things I had to buy for the property The main problem is as rents soar higher ,the price for investors to buy a property also goes up to the 15 year equation. The Government needs to cap rent ,to limit the sale prices of property and also give a tax break to tenants so if you pay 10k rent a year that is tax-free in your wages But all governments are afraid to interfere in the capitalist system apart from taking more tax from it. The whole system is double or triple tax ,you are paying rent on money taxed from your wages to a landlord then he is taxed on that taxed money same as vat in any shop you are paying 21% vat on money already taxed at source from your wages truth is slavery was never abolished it was merely better disguised.
Having a buy to let these days after the raise of taxes and interest rates is not worth it. Landlords are selling their properties before they are financially crashed.
I'm a single guy in the UK, mid 30's and I'm doing great. It's fantastic not having kids, a car and a mortgage, those things will just take all your money, time and energy. Don't think that you need those things to have a good life, the game is rigged by the banks into making you think that's what your goal should be. No thanks. I am more than happy with my life, just renting and being able to just go anywhere anytime.
I'm in the U.S. and hardly ever turn on the heat unless it's just unbearable. And only because my grands live with us, If not for them it would always be off. Electricity of course has gone up ridiculously. I cut costs in every way possible.

What makes me angry is the lack of any solution, there are no opportunities to grow, no chance of escaping this. It annoys me further that people still look for government to solve their problems, just stop. No political party is going to save us. They are the same party flying different colours. There is no hope in politics, and I am done looking for solutions in it. So if anyone has any solution that does not involve the government, we want to hear it.
@@rossm2853 wealth taxes have never worked. Anywhere, at any time. In fact, I would go as far as to say its this anti-wealth sentiment that is exactly the cause of many of our problems. There are no incentives within the UK that actually drive investment, hard work and productivity. Gifted doctors in the UK find work abroad because the quality of life and pay are superior in other countries. The cream of the crop rise to the top, which is not here, while we get everyone else who cannot find work elsewhere. In other words, we get the bottom of the barrel. When you have an attitude, law and policy that chases away people with wealth or skills that would bring wealth to the country, you have setup a system where you will get poorer and poorer. We need more incentives, not less.
@@Billmaster115 No the problem is the super wealthy will own everything. They own the assets, land, multiple houses, shares. Wealth is built through owning these assets. If they aren't taxed there wealth continues to grow and they continue to buy more. Normal working people can't compete. I'm not talking about taxing working people more ie doctors, I'm talking about a wealth tax targeting those (who predominantly) not working with say £10 million or more in assets. This is who needs to start pay.
@@rossm2853 this is beside the point. I was specifically asking for a solution *without* government. Ie no taxes Also, thats really stupid. The wealthy can only stay wealthy by constantly buying, selling, innovating and competing. Without an impetus, there is no source of wealth. That impetus is always an incentive to improve ones condition above what already exists, which requires a constant raising of the lowest standard with the highest. Besides. Its always happened that a wealth tax always see the wealthy selling off their assets and moving elsewhere. California tried this recently where this happened exactly and ended up losing a source of tax revenue.
If conservatives get in power again the unelected prime minister pledges to strip all benefits from millions of people if they don't find work within 12 months, with the help of the work coach, so that's the sick, disabled etc without support, will make homeless people in the millions if the tyrant has his way.

I’m aged 67 and I have a payslip from fifty years ago, I was aged 17, working in a coal mine and I was getting £27.50 a week, which equates to around £485 in todays money. Now what seventeen year old gets that kind of money? And don’t forget that when I reached 18, I got men’s wages.
And that works out at £25,220 per annum. That's pretty much the average salary these days for a typical office job. The apprentice wage now is £6.40 per hour, so around £250 per week or £12k per year.
In the UK, people are penalized for working by paying more tax and we're never entitled to any government assistance schemes. The NHS issues a useless blue card that hardly anyone accepts they send you stupid discount codes that never works. Most of our pay disappears before we even see it. Those who don't work or work part-time often fare better than full-time workers because we pay more taxes but receive no government support and are never entitled to anything. Due to household income thresholds, we don't qualify for anything. We receive no assistance or funds. I've tried to find schemes we're entitled to, but there's nothing available. National insurance rates are too high, and I don't even have time to see my GP, and when I do, it's never the actual GP I see. The service we get from. NHS is so poor. Why cant i just save the money i am paying to NI and pay for myown health service myself when i need it and get a good care! They make us beg for the service we are getting like its free, its not actually we have paid for it! We have to pay for everything. Council taxes are exorbitant, and the roads are filthy and the crime rate is so high. When our cars are stolen, the police merely provide a reference number, and our insurance premiums skyrocket when we try to renew. Driving even slightly above the 30 mph limit on roads feels like a criminal offense, and the police seem more focused on penalizing drivers than focusing on actual criminal. In the UK, hardworking individuals are punished for paying taxes and receive no benefits or support from the police, NHS, or local council despite contributing. It's absurd, and I don't see how it will improve when those in power don't seem to care. When you are stressed out from all of the above they say lets concentrate on mental health and well-being!! Its a joke! Millions has gone into this rediculous scheme to get you to speak to someone that can not and does not have any power to help you. They are sitting there for you to TALK! I call this modern SLAVERY.
Ever watched the video, The Great NHS Heist”? You can thank global finance, led by U.S. private finance. Our government threw Americans to private finance wolves decades ago. We are corrupted government, finance owned, with non-stop propaganda. End stage parasitic unregulated capitalism. That’s all. They are scraping every dime off humanity. There will come a day when civilization starts to understand why civilizations collapse, get burned down, and then have to rebuild everything, or just leave it burnt to the ground if the “master” robber barons are not interested in paying to rebuild it. Private finance controls wealth, they create wealth through debt instruments for the privileged. The thing is, all the hard working folks know how to make fire in the 21st Century. We certainly do not need to continue our gilded age, with only the few in gilded towers in charge of the rest getting ground up into grist.
Our council , Labour Enfield North London, held a consultation on whether to cut the council tax support for the working age, unemployed, single mums etc the ones most poverty stricken basically.

I've been able to scale from $350K to $650K this red season because my FA figured out Defensive strategies to protect my portfolio and profit from this roller coaster market.
I thought about investing in the financial market, I heard that people make millions if they know the tricks of the trade, but I lack good knowledge and a strategy to outperform the market and generate good yields. I have $160,000 but it's hard to bite the bullet and do it.
Having an FA is the best way to go. Based on a direct encounter with a CFP named Julia Hope Marble I can say with certainty that their skills are excellent. She helped raise over 580,000 in 18 months from an initially stagnant portfolio of 150,000
This isn't the first time l've seen her name on social platform. I think her good reputation speaks for her, thank you for the recommendation I just contacted her
The best course of action if you lack market knowledge is to ask a consultant or investing co-ach for guidance or assistance. Speaking with a consultant helped me stay afloat in the market and grow my portfolio to about 65% since January, even though I know it sounds obvious or generic. I believe that is the most effective way to enter the business at the moment.

What the bleep does “living wage” mean if people can’t live on it? Why do the government get away with calling it that? I’d like to see business bosses live on it.
Minimum wage is £11.44, with a standard 37.5 hour week it's around £1600 a month after taxes. Who "struggles" with that? There are places in the world where they live on $2 a day.

I put myself through university and worked 3 jobs 6-7 days a week for 25 years and have a ‘professional’ job and yet doesn’t pay enough to live in London as a single person. I am ill as a result of everything that happened to me and struggle to survive. I can’t leave London yet because I have 5 specialist hospitals looking after me. I still work full time. I want to keep my pride and dignity and not get depressed over losing my job and profession I worked so hard for. But often I ask myself if I’m being stupid and naive and what’s the point of it all. I have to chose between heating and eating! It doesn’t seem fair..
In some ways the peasants had it better. Everyone had work, that was simply a given. It's a little bit more complicated than this, but every peasant effectively owned their house. Apart from having enough to eat, work wasn't a huge concern, and by that I mean that feudal economies weren't obsessed with productivity like we are now. Also, the nature of farm work is such that there are periods of intense work followed by long periods of rest. They worked fewer hours in a year than most people do nowadays. Everyone knew one another and there was a real sense of community. The peasants did have rights, though modern historians usually don't emphasize that reality. Most lords spent a significant amount of their time dealing with petitions, as they were called; pleas for help, money, less work, etc. If the lord didn't deal with them personally, his steward did. And they couldn't just say no to everything because the Church was a powerful force and everyone, lord, lady and serf, had to adhere to the moral tenets of Christianity. That's obviously not the case any more either, and that might be the most important problem. If the serfs/peasants were lucky enough to live in peaceful times or in a peaceful area, life was even easier. Christianity also compelled various feasts, and local traditions begat more celebrations as well, so it wasn't all just work.
What happens when people reach 55 to retirement age without anything saved? There will be millions unable to find work, in rented accommodation over the next few decades with zero provisions or ability to support themselves.
In the US, 60% of new retirees are homeless living in tents, cars and RVs. Even if they saved and invested what they could while employed, illness, divorce, failed investments, job loss wiped them out financially.
My husband and I immigrated from the US to Mexico 18 months ago. If we had stayed in the US, we would be homeless. There’s still financial pressure here, but not nearly as much.
Worked all my life, 17 to 52. Every 10 years or so, recession hits, and all I have gained disappears. I don't think I can keep pretending this is ever going to change. Now, with UC, I don't want to keep fighting
Yes, me too . I think people need to watch I, Daniel Blake or re- watch it. We are officially in a recession, but I think it started in 2019/ 2020 ... I am 61 in September with a health condition.

You won't achieve anything by bankrupting energy suppliers who are forced by law to make basically no profit anyway. You won't achieve anything by increasing the costs of leasing out oil fields, which has only really just become profitable for the likes of BP in the last few years (they were billions in the red until then), if you raise it higher you'll just have no one to extract the gas and your bills will rise even higher. This kind of thinking reminds me of Mao, who thought if we kill the sparrows then they won't eat the grain and there'd be more food for everyone... and then swarms of locusts ate all the grain and millions starved. Perhaps look at the breakdown on tax income/expenditures for the country. A quarter of all tax taken in is spent on social security, considering the tax burden is higher than it was during the war I don't believe this is sustainable. A third on the NHS which is still somehow at breaking point despite funding increases every year since before the tories took over, there's some obvious corruption happening here that needs sorting out.
The average yearly wage I have been seeing on new job postings is 20,000 pounds a year. Having just moved from Canada, I have never seen such a massive gap between the cost of living and the average wage. Not to mention, the electric bills are absolutely outrageous in the winter. Companies should be ashamed of themselves for offering such unliveable wages.
The sickest joke of all time was when george osbourne re named 'the national MINIMUM wage '' the national LIVING wage' clearly if universal credit is needed to top it up then its everything but a living wage ,
I would think we are heading for a massive employment push back if the difference between earnings and outgoings isn't addressed. If a long week at work doesn't even pay for the basics, what's the point? I wonder how long it will be before people snap, because at the moment they are still taking it, and the Government is still getting away with it.
The british plebblic, in their pseudo-virtue, have dug their own graves. Nobody's going to snap. Because deep down. They know the problem. All they have to do is look in the mirror. But, they know. Their narcissism and hunger for ''do-gooding'' hits their bank account and suddenly they cry: ''How did we get here'' - because to a narcissist, ignorance is oh-so-bliss.
I was in the USA last month and it seems that everyone is driving a big fancy Ford F 150. Maybe a lot of Americans are living beyond their means? Maybe too many tax cuts for the very rich and corporations?
Our Government haven't got a clue what it means to struggle- most of them were born into rich families. My working salary in real terms has not increased for over 10 years!! While the cost of living he has gone up. I am lucky we have rent free accommodation with my job and i took one of my work pensions at 55 for extra income because its worth more to my quality of life now. The government statement is alot about "charitable" top up payments they are giving people - which makes you feel worse- forget these payments and pay people real wages in line with the real cost of living. Food banks should only be for occasional one of severe emergencies now they are a weekly necessity for thousands of people. Shame on our government.
Retirees who struggle to meet their basic needs are the ones who could not accumulate enough money during their active years to meet their needs. Retirement choices determine a lot of things. My parents both spent same number of years in the civil service, but my mom was investing through a wealth manager, and my dad through the 401k.

The collapse has certainly begun.

I grew up in post communist country, we were poor even if my parents work fulled time and then after work on my grandparents farm. This women from video is not poor! Look at her apartment... She probably can't afford all she wants but that's not poverty.
Example spotted. Her freezer is full of fries, its several times less expensive to buy potatoes and cut them... She is not poor, she just want life of rich people. She said she work 5 days a week but how many hours? She said, she has 3 kids, where is dad? She is not that young, so I guss those kids might be in age, that you can work part time.

I am 37 now and earn quite a lot now, I was alway learning and working a lot. First jobs were like 1-1.5eur/hr. bus ticket at that time was 0.5eur... This is poverty, not what that women presents. She even said, we not look like poor but we are, nope she is just not poor.

@@MrsBrit1 when you don't earn much you have to cut something, that's all. I don't think peeling potatoes is difficult. Instead of buying she can do it on her own. You can also think about moving to smaller place - less to heat etc. It's not great but it is what it is. I grew being poor but we were never hungry as my parents were resoursfull, I mean they know how to menage poverty. We eat what was seasonal (cheapest) and honestly food was great - home made.

People are working in supplemental employment expecting it to pay the entire cost of living. Thats just not the way it works. You need to get an education that provides you with a skill that pays all the bills!

High prices for everything have severely affected my plan. I'm concerned if people who went through the 2008 financial crisis had an easier time than I am having now. The stock market is worrying me as my income has decreased, and I fear I won't have enough savings for retirement since I can't contribute as much as before.
It's recommended to save at least 20% of your income in a 401k. You can use online calculators to estimate how much you should save based on your age and income. Saving at least 20% of your income in a 401(k) can help ensure that you have enough money to retire comfortably. By saving this much, you can take advantage of investing in the stock market and potentially grow your retirement savings over time.
It's often true that people underestimate the importance of financial advisors until they feel the negative effects of emotional decision-making. I remember a few summers ago, after a tough divorce, when I needed a boost for my struggling business. I researched and found a licensed advisor who diligently helped grow my reserves despite inflation. Consequently, my reserves increased from $275k to around $750k.
That's fascinating. How can I contact your Asset-coach as my portfolio is dwindling?
Certainly, there are a handful of experts in the field. I've experimented with a few over the past years, but I've stuck with ‘’Melissa Terri Swayne” for about five years now, and her performance has been consistently impressive.She’s quite known in her field, look-her up.
I copied her whole name and pasted it into my browser; her website appeared immediately, and her qualifications are excellent; thank you for sharing.
What makes my blood boil, is that the minimum wage goes up, then guess what! All the household bills go up AT THE SAME TIME! So how are we benefiting from it! The government doesn’t say that, do they!
Last year my bills went up by 13% and my food shop by about 50% and gas/electric by about 75%. Meanwhile my wage went up 3%. Make that make sense.
Have you only just noticed this?
Your not supposed to live forever on minimum wage your supposed to use it as a stepping stone to a better job, most minimum wage jobs are held by students and immigrants who have no qualifications yet, if your middle aged and haven't figured out how to learn a trade or skill that earns you more than minimum wage that is literally a choice that you have made for yourself.
@@randomdude_2000but that's not how it works, I remember min wage being £5.25 I was on nearly £9

Heck even in Denmark, it was very common up until the mid 2010´s to have polish workers everywhere doing construction, electricians, and so on. Now they are mostly gone, there are still a small amount of polish workers, but they are not working class. Tech heavy talents working in the IT-sector.

Down under the same. We know Jesus though and follow Him and His Word (not religions which are only man made) .
Flats are almost impossible to get now.
However one of my sons rents and each time we have prayed the Lord has given him 3 flats while dozens of other people were hoping to get them. The first nice one bedroom was eventually sold but he had it for quite a long while. The second was a nice one bedroom quite big for one person but not that big for two and right by the beach with lovely greenery outside. He recently married and now they have a child. The landlady said he could stay but it had stairs.. The third flat/house he is in now is a stones throw from the beach too and lovely sea views and 2 bedroom. They got it ahead of many others.
All his places in this pretty coastal town not far from us are because we asked Jesus as He is our Lord and Saviour. Praise God. The rent is quite high and they can't afford a house but I'm praying for a house or just a small piece of land.
I feel so sad and sorry for people who miss out on a flat and I pray for them too. God is amazing though and Jesus takes care of us. Repent of sin folks if you want heaven entry and commit to Jesus and His Word the bible and walk with Him daily. You have to go through trials but He answers prayers for his born again children. You have to be born again through being sorry for sin and turning to Jesus only.

My mom got up 2 hours before us to start a fire in the wood heater outside. That also heated the hot water for us to get ready for school (Hardy Wood Heater). She’d gotten dad off to work, before we woke, while still dark out. A Railroad worker, he was gone a lot, sometimes a week at the time.
She packed our lunches with a handwritten note, and little picture she’d draw us.
She then sat our clothes out, on a chair, and our bath towel laying over the back rest, all near the den’s oil heater.
She’d make us breakfast if we wanted it, and even put our back packs on our backs, and complained of how heavy they were, that we had to lug them, and we hugged and kissed her telling her they were fine, and off to wait on the rural county bus.
Then she got ready for work, serving school lunches at a Private School in another county. She was never to tired to cook us a full supper, each night and complete the cycle.
I miss her everyday. No one will ever love me the way that woman loved me, never again in my life.
And she died way too soon to reward her for being such an amazing mom.
The night before she died, she was ordering my wife and I, our Christmas Presents, for a Christmas she wouldn’t live to see.
Lord, thank you for letting me get these words out❤, I haven’t mourned her properly. Shock is giving way to grief now, and as I’m always late, it’s years later, and I’m alone working in Chile, left with my thoughts. Homesick for a home in MS that is long gone now.
When my brother died, at 17 in a car accident on his way to work, they found all those letters in a Cedar Chest in his room. Even my notes. He made notations on some of them(last day of school, Kyle’s Birthday, my birthday, day before Vacation!, day after Kyle’s Soccer Championship, etc.

If you want to move in my state you need to pay first, last and sometimes extra for security. You also have to pay a non-refundable fee to just fill out an application.

I agree! That's why it is advisable that you have to invest while you still have a regular job or earning a regular income, and do it constantly. You still need to have something that will keep you going even if you're investing. Good financial planning and money allocation is the key.
The best course of action if you lack market knowledge is to ask a consultant or investing coach for guidance or assistance.

They get free food and drink all day.(which they complain constantly that its bad) Something like £30 daily allowance each which they send home to their families. Free cigarettes. They had the Heating on full blast over the winter months while my 90 year old Nan down the road is freezing to death cos she cant afford the heating on... It's a all Male immigrant camp and we finding used condoms everywhere. This post will probably be removed. But it's the truth. RAF Wethersfield.
I'm a 23 y.o nurse living in the Netherlands (originally from Portugal). I am now renting my own place (that can suit 2 people but the landlord only accepts 1 person to live here). I could NEVER be financially independent at this age in Portugal (and specially being single). But seeing housing prices here getting higher, I’m starting to panic because how will I ever be able to buy an house independently? In any country really? I can’t stay in this apartment forever.
Adult life is getting more difficult by the day… I’m scared of the future.
Me, too, mate. I am 63 y.o. Good luck.

Until you have had enough of it emotionally. Then return to Portugal. Because the potential for savings is shrinking, all of the time. The same everywhere. At some point in time it will be a pointless treadmill.
Look into where you can buy a cheap house. It can be your retirement plan.
A nurse is a living wage.
I still earn a similar wage to what I earnt in 2001 meanwhile the cost of everything has trebled. Our government is taking us for granted, they like to tax us more to pay for people who don’t work. In this country your either that rich that you don’t care or everything is free if you decide not to work. The people in the middle of it all are the hard workers that earn an average wage and have nothing left every week, it’s disgraceful. We pay for rockets for other countries to fire at each other whilst our own armed forces are depleted. If we went to war all our children would be forced to defend us whilst said government would retreat to their bunkers. I really am ashamed of my own country
Don't be ashamed of your country. Be angry towards those who have subverted it.
Nothing is for free! Maybe looks at how much people get on benefits. They have work commitments they have to meet or they loose money! How many people do you really think choose not to work ?

I am an immigrant myself but people like this only make it more difficult for refugees that really need help and for other financial immigrants like us who just want to live pay taxes be a part of the community and then go back to our home countries when we retire.
Update. Some 5 stars hotels now included. And some of the young men from France stay in the hotels for years. Limitless budget for this apparently.

Work just doesnt pay in this day and age. The system is designed to give more and more to the landlords
I own a property that I rent out, and the price to buy the property is calculated on 15 years of full rent(IMO)
then I have to pay tax on the rent I receive ,apart from any things I had to buy for the property
The main problem is as rents soar higher ,the price for investors to buy a property also goes up to the 15 year equation.
The Government needs to cap rent ,to limit the sale prices of property and also give a tax break to tenants
so if you pay 10k rent a year that is tax-free in your wages
But all governments are afraid to interfere in the capitalist system apart from taking more tax from it.
The whole system is double or triple tax ,you are paying rent on money taxed from your wages to a landlord then he is taxed on that taxed money
same as vat in any shop you are paying 21% vat on money already taxed at source from your wages

wealth tax
@@rossm2853 wealth taxes have never worked. Anywhere, at any time. In fact, I would go as far as to say its this anti-wealth sentiment that is exactly the cause of many of our problems. There are no incentives within the UK that actually drive investment, hard work and productivity.
Gifted doctors in the UK find work abroad because the quality of life and pay are superior in other countries. The cream of the crop rise to the top, which is not here, while we get everyone else who cannot find work elsewhere. In other words, we get the bottom of the barrel. When you have an attitude, law and policy that chases away people with wealth or skills that would bring wealth to the country, you have setup a system where you will get poorer and poorer.
We need more incentives, not less.
@@Billmaster115 No the problem is the super wealthy will own everything. They own the assets, land, multiple houses, shares. Wealth is built through owning these assets. If they aren't taxed there wealth continues to grow and they continue to buy more. Normal working people can't compete. I'm not talking about taxing working people more ie doctors, I'm talking about a wealth tax targeting those (who predominantly) not working with say £10 million or more in assets. This is who needs to start pay.
@@rossm2853 this is beside the point. I was specifically asking for a solution *without* government. Ie no taxes
Also, thats really stupid. The wealthy can only stay wealthy by constantly buying, selling, innovating and competing. Without an impetus, there is no source of wealth. That impetus is always an incentive to improve ones condition above what already exists, which requires a constant raising of the lowest standard with the highest.
Besides. Its always happened that a wealth tax always see the wealthy selling off their assets and moving elsewhere. California tried this recently where this happened exactly and ended up losing a source of tax revenue.
This is infuriating. How woulda millionaire PM have a clue what poverty feels like.

We have to pay for everything. Council taxes are exorbitant, and the roads are filthy and the crime rate is so high. When our cars are stolen, the police merely provide a reference number, and our insurance premiums skyrocket when we try to renew. Driving even slightly above the 30 mph limit on roads feels like a criminal offense, and the police seem more focused on penalizing drivers than focusing on actual criminal.
In the UK, hardworking individuals are punished for paying taxes and receive no benefits or support from the police, NHS, or local council despite contributing. It's absurd, and I don't see how it will improve when those in power don't seem to care.

I've been able to scale from $350K to $650K this red season because my FA figured out Defensive strategies to protect my portfolio and profit from this roller coaster market.
I thought about investing in the financial market, I heard that people make millions if they know the tricks of the trade, but I lack good knowledge and a strategy to outperform the market and generate good yields. I have $160,000 but it's hard to bite the bullet and do it.
Having an FA is the best way to go. Based on a direct encounter with a CFP named Julia Hope Marble I can say with certainty that their skills are excellent. She helped raise over 580,000 in 18 months from an initially stagnant portfolio of 150,000
This isn't the first time l've seen her name on social platform. I think her good reputation speaks for her, thank you for the recommendation I just contacted her
The best course of action if you lack market knowledge is to ask a consultant or investing co-ach for guidance or assistance. Speaking with a consultant helped me stay afloat in the market and grow my portfolio to about 65% since January, even though I know it sounds obvious or generic. I believe that is the most effective way to enter the business at the moment.

Minimum wage is £11.44, with a standard 37.5 hour week it's around £1600 a month after taxes. Who "struggles" with that? There are places in the world where they live on $2 a day.
@@sleptiq yeah if you're single and willing to live in a flat share it wouldn't be so bad, not counting the expensive areas anyway.
Everyone I know left the UK and their lives are far far better than if they stayed.
I moved to Bulgaria and there's no comparison. I hope I never have to go back.
@@gilessteve How is learning the language going?
@@pawel8365 Terrible! lol I can just about get by in shops, etc.
I would have loved to but we can’t now because of Brexit right? You can get a long visa but you won’t be able to live there for many years as far as I know. Unless I’m missing something?
@@alexcurmi7412 I have residency because I moved here before Brexit but I'd like to know the answer to your question.
I put myself through university and worked 3 jobs 6-7 days a week for 25 years and have a ‘professional’ job and yet doesn’t pay enough to live in London as a single person. I am ill as a result of everything that happened to me and struggle to survive. I can’t leave London yet because I have 5 specialist hospitals looking after me. I still work full time. I want to keep my pride and dignity and not get depressed over losing my job and profession I worked so hard for. But often I ask myself if I’m being stupid and naive and what’s the point of it all. I have to chose between heating and eating! It doesn’t seem fair..
"When tyranny becomes law, rebellion becomes duty."
Is Feudal times, this was called serfdom.
Did serfs have healthcare, welfare and free food?
@@lervish1966 Yes, they did to varying levels of service.
@@kray97They also had to fight in any war if ordered to buy the Lord.
In some ways the peasants had it better. Everyone had work, that was simply a given. It's a little bit more complicated than this, but every peasant effectively owned their house. Apart from having enough to eat, work wasn't a huge concern, and by that I mean that feudal economies weren't obsessed with productivity like we are now. Also, the nature of farm work is such that there are periods of intense work followed by long periods of rest. They worked fewer hours in a year than most people do nowadays. Everyone knew one another and there was a real sense of community. The peasants did have rights, though modern historians usually don't emphasize that reality. Most lords spent a significant amount of their time dealing with petitions, as they were called; pleas for help, money, less work, etc. If the lord didn't deal with them personally, his steward did. And they couldn't just say no to everything because the Church was a powerful force and everyone, lord, lady and serf, had to adhere to the moral tenets of Christianity. That's obviously not the case any more either, and that might be the most important problem. If the serfs/peasants were lucky enough to live in peaceful times or in a peaceful area, life was even easier. Christianity also compelled various feasts, and local traditions begat more celebrations as well, so it wasn't all just work.
Sad my friend works full time and now looking for a weekend job. She will be working 7 days a week.
If you work 40 hours a week, nobody should have to worry about being homeless and hungry
What happens when people reach 55 to retirement age without anything saved?
There will be millions unable to find work, in rented accommodation over the next few decades with zero provisions or ability to support themselves.
In the US people are living in vehicles. Lots of them on BLM land, in the desert. Others are moving to South America and Asia.
In the US, 60% of new retirees are homeless living in tents, cars and RVs. Even if they saved and invested what they could while employed, illness, divorce, failed investments, job loss wiped them out financially.
My husband and I immigrated from the US to Mexico 18 months ago. If we had stayed in the US, we would be homeless. There’s still financial pressure here, but not nearly as much.
Due to Blair and open borders.
@@Curlyblonde 60%??
Worked all my life, 17 to 52. Every 10 years or so, recession hits, and all I have gained disappears. I don't think I can keep pretending this is ever going to change. Now, with UC, I don't want to keep fighting
Yes, me too . I think people need to watch I, Daniel Blake or re- watch it. We are officially in a recession, but I think it started in 2019/ 2020 ... I am 61 in September with a health condition.
I'm 53,my wife is 50. We both work full time but never seem to have anything spare. I drive a 20 yr old car covered in rust. We hardly ever eat out. EVERYTHING goes on bills. Never seem to catch a break. I thought it would be easier by my stage in life but seems to just get more difficult.
me too and the energy companies are making huge profits we the people need to stand up and say no
You won't achieve anything by bankrupting energy suppliers who are forced by law to make basically no profit anyway. You won't achieve anything by increasing the costs of leasing out oil fields, which has only really just become profitable for the likes of BP in the last few years (they were billions in the red until then), if you raise it higher you'll just have no one to extract the gas and your bills will rise even higher. This kind of thinking reminds me of Mao, who thought if we kill the sparrows then they won't eat the grain and there'd be more food for everyone... and then swarms of locusts ate all the grain and millions starved.
Perhaps look at the breakdown on tax income/expenditures for the country. A quarter of all tax taken in is spent on social security, considering the tax burden is higher than it was during the war I don't believe this is sustainable. A third on the NHS which is still somehow at breaking point despite funding increases every year since before the tories took over, there's some obvious corruption happening here that needs sorting out.
In other countries energy prices are low because those countries have natural resources. We don’t.
electricity is free... we are being scammed
The average yearly wage I have been seeing on new job postings is 20,000 pounds a year. Having just moved from Canada, I have never seen such a massive gap between the cost of living and the average wage. Not to mention, the electric bills are absolutely outrageous in the winter. Companies should be ashamed of themselves for offering such unliveable wages.
If wages are 'unliveable', are people dying?
The sickest joke of all time was when george osbourne re named 'the national MINIMUM wage '' the national LIVING wage' clearly if universal credit is needed to top it up then its everything but a living wage ,
Many didn't pay the Living Wage. Minimum wage was less. Anybody in a job should get a reasonable amount. Not needing top ups.
Same issues here in the US. Taxes high, retirement age at 67, college unaffordable, food expensive, healthcare premiums high.
Exactly
And yet no shortage of money for immigration and foreign aid. Sickening.
Right? Fk Ukraine our country is trash now.
I live in Estonia. Looks like you have reached the same standart for living now.
I would think we are heading for a massive employment push back if the difference between earnings and outgoings isn't addressed. If a long week at work doesn't even pay for the basics, what's the point? I wonder how long it will be before people snap, because at the moment they are still taking it, and the Government is still getting away with it.
The british plebblic, in their pseudo-virtue, have dug their own graves.
Nobody's going to snap. Because deep down. They know the problem. All they have to do is look in the mirror. But, they know. Their narcissism and hunger for ''do-gooding'' hits their bank account and suddenly they cry: ''How did we get here'' - because to a narcissist, ignorance is oh-so-bliss.
March on the House of Parliament banging your pots and pans to make noise
ON THE STATUE OF LIBERTY IT SAYS GIVE ME YOUR TIRED , YOUR HUNGRY , YOUR POOR… WELL ITS AMERICANS WHO ARE TIRED AND HUNGRY AND POOR
I was in the USA last month and it seems that everyone is driving a big fancy Ford F 150. Maybe a lot of Americans are living beyond their means? Maybe too many tax cuts for the very rich and corporations?
Our Government haven't got a clue what it means to struggle- most of them were born into rich families. My working salary in real terms has not increased for over 10 years!! While the cost of living he has gone up. I am lucky we have rent free accommodation with my job and i took one of my work pensions at 55 for extra income because its worth more to my quality of life now. The government statement is alot about "charitable" top up payments they are giving people - which makes you feel worse- forget these payments and pay people real wages in line with the real cost of living. Food banks should only be for occasional one of severe emergencies now they are a weekly necessity for thousands of people. Shame on our government.
Retirees who struggle to meet their basic needs are the ones who could not accumulate enough money during their active years to meet their needs. Retirement choices determine a lot of things. My parents both spent same number of years in the civil service, but my mom was investing through a wealth manager, and my dad through the 401k.
I agree with you and I believe that the secret to financial stability is having the right investment ideas to enable you earn more money, I don’t know who agrees with me but either way I recommend either real estate and stocks..
I’ve been diligently working, saving and contributing towards early retirement and financial freedom, but since covid outbreak, the economy so far has caused my portfolio to underperform, do I keep contributing to my 401k or look at alternative sectors to meet my goals?
@@mnthunder Understanding your financial needs and making effective decisions is very essential. If I could advise you, you should seek the help of a financial advisor. For the record, working with one has been the best for my finances...
@@AllisonSherman657 How can one find a verifiable financial planner? I would not mind looking up the professional that helped you. I will be retiring in two years and I might need some management on my much larger portfolio. Don't want to take any chances.
@@mnthunder *Mr Gary Mason Brooks* is the licensed advisor I use. Just research the name. You’d find necessary details to work with a correspondence to set up an appointment.
Government watching this and thinking "open an only fans after your 40 hour shift"
Stop projecting your own fantasies onto the government.

Income in this country is terrible for 80% of people. Too many company’s offering only minimum wage
Did you think min wage was a good idea leftie it destroyed the free workers market so did mass immigration before min wage came in I could ask and offer myself at a interview for a hour.y rate and get a night shift allowance now its min wage and no shift allowance lefties destroy everything they touch
Please can you show me proof of this, especially the 80% figure.
3 types of inflation, 1, goods & services. The one we're told of all the time. 2, Wages. The bank won't allow higher wages so tough. 3, Assets. The rich own all the assets so that's not gonna come down. The only way to solve this problem is for wage growth and that ain't happening. Welcome to skid row everyone.
yeah but muhammed and fatima need your wages to live off.
have a heart.

sunak should be embarrassed by the state of this country. Instead, all he is interested in is wealth for his family and getting richer. I despise rishi sunak
He just wants his 2 years as PM on his CV before he buggers off to be employed by the WEF or the IMF.
Are u only blaming sunil????is only sunik rich??????what about all your thousands of lords and ladies,??????what about your knighted lord sir Tony Blair ????
@rodgerhargoon3402 Could not agree more with your comment. Blair had a lot to with coruption. However. We are in an unfortunate conservative run gov who is responsible for the country, so yes, I do blame sunak as he is the PM who should be doing more
Nice of the govt to provide help but it feels like they are subsidising employers who do not pay enough and landlords & utilities who charge too much.
I'm one of these people, I work part time counting each penny but now it's come to a point I now have to start claiming benefits, I don't want to but now I have no choice. I'm not living, I'm just surviving.

There is nothing wrong with batch cooking, gas is not being used daily when you adopt this. Most families struggle when children are young, life starts getting better once they're older.
Use induction cooker. Save even gas is expensive. Smart smart to beat frugal.
America is presently besieged by the hydra-headed evil combo of inflation and recession. The worst aspect about this crisis is that consumers are piling up credit card debt. Credit card debt increased by 20% in April alone, while interest rates have doubled in a year. Inflation is so severe that customers are essentially going into debt to buy basic essentials. The collapse has certainly begun.
Every day, we face a new challenge. It has become the new normal. We felt it was a catastrophe at first, but now we know it's a new normal to which we must adjust. This year will be a year of great economic suffering across the country.
Thinking of how difficult it is to get a job, I think it’s time people start investing and earning their own money, the heartache from job hunt is quite unbearable, I for one would prefer investment than getting myself worked up on seeking a job
Investing in Stocks, Forex and cryptocurrency is the wisest, it's a place where millionaires and future billionaires come to get inspired. If you've not been involved in any you're missing out. Most importantly If you know how to trade you can make a ton of money no matter where you find yourself
Trading with crypto is more beneficial than most people sees it to be, just like stock, and forex trade, crypto is also the world fastest leading currency now and in the near future
I totally agree with you, the stock market is the most profitable venture I ever invested in, I reached my goal of $700k monthly trade earnings. Setting realistic goals is an essential part of trading
