I get right now £50 a week for being a career for my landlady... I get £200 a month for housing payments because I rent a room. I get £90 every 2-3 weeks.

I'm not sitting around the house doing nothing all day, I volunteer every Tuesday at the local arts center... Their between projects right now so have nothing for me to do there. I'm working on setting up my own business for my art so I can earn extra money on the side line... But I'm not sure how much it will get me back in the long run. But if your unemployed, which as a career I technically don't count as, even though I pretty much am (ya for government stat fixing)... Well people label you as "lazy". Heck when I'm not doing this I'm here on the wikia reading and checking entries at the moment. I keep myself busy and active all day practically.

I certainly don't believe "why should I work when I get money for nothing", but I had 4 years I've suffered from domestic violence myself which held me back a lot. I lost jobs to it and lost hope in the long run. I've moved somewhere where there is no work practically and I need the internet to continue setting up my projects. I if I loose this, I loose hope. So in the next 6 months, I've got too much to do.

A few months ago I had a argument with someone who worked all their life and didn't believe in benefits... Lucky her I said... I've never been able to get a job. Not like I didn't try... 4 years of my youth were lost to a situational cause and now I've got no employment history its much harder to deal with getting a job. So I've either got to go self employed or not get anywhere. :-/
