Good job your paying their education then, eh?  If they are educated poorly do we get a refund? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

altus   538 #27 Posted March 22, 2012 It would no doubt mean that you have no relatives (that you speak to) and also have no close friends. What is all your relatives and friends are significantly richer than you and by comparison you have a small legacy? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

I will be lucky if I can afford my own healthcare and final trip to switzerland. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
MC Spyda   10 #30 Posted March 22, 2012 What is all your relatives and friends are significantly richer than you and by comparison you have a small legacy?  Then give it to charity or something.  I'm not saying you have to give it to family/friends, just that most normal people would have family/friends that they could give it to if they wished.

Good job your paying their education then, eh? Â Old chestnut alert. Yeah, for every one who becomes a doctor, there'll be tens of thousands who'll amount to nothing. Â Just like the rubbish about immigration. 'But who will look after the old?'. Yeah, so let's let 5 million in on the off chance that a few might become carers.
