no need to justify the cost of ANYTHING in your house. you don't go on the beg for money for nothing; i'm sure if you're liable to pay tax then you do, and as such, the value of your coffee maker is of no business or concern of anyone on here.
Thanks, I know. But I feel more than a little hypocritical having such an extravagance and calling Jack out for wasting money. Though you are right, I may be on a pension, but do still pay tax on my income. I also pay full rent, as my works pension takes me just over the amount where I can claim HB.
I won't complain though, I'm lucky that my income is such that I can just about afford it. I don't have much disposable income, and most people would say I was poor.
What really gets to me though, is Jack intimating she is still poor (without actually saying so explicitly) and accepting money off strangers for doing nothing. She is actually obtaining money by deception.
