It wont be long before the next post office scandal hits the news.
Wait till the inheritors discover that Great Aunt Lucy released £7,000 equity on her £1.5million property at 10000% APR, when the inheritors go to collect they will end up owing the equity company money.

Someone who either lived their lives as spongers or at best worked at a mundane job , bottom of the pile with no aspiration will tend to be envious of those who have worked hard and achieved some decent remuneration. |

What's wrong with asset-rich but cash-poor pensioners raising funds against the value of their assets (eg, houses, land, valuable items)? Seems a sensible way to go if they prefer to stay put in comfort, rather than down-size or live in poverty...

Apologies, but I have to ask — are you really that dumb, or are you just playing...? Don’t apologise , just answer the question please . For whom should these asset-rich but cash-poor pensioners raise funds against the value of their assets? Are you an insurance salesman or a second hand gold dealer ? |

What ''generous'' OAP pension?. How much is the State Pension increasing by this year? ... From 6 April 2023, the State Pension will increase by 10.1%. annual growth in employees' average total earnings (including bonuses) was 7.2% in August to October 2023.12 Dec Pensions increasing at a higher rate then Them working to pay for your Generous pension. The max state pension will be under £900 a month from April ie under £12000 a year and is taxable Those of working age suffering with lazyitis who can't invent a so called disability might be subject to a benefit cap of of over £1500 a month welfare handouts which is not taxed. If they can invent a disability there is no cap and they can get much higher welfare handouts - not taxable I repeat - what generous pension? |

So at the end of the day those pensioners who were able to buy their homes many years ago now have to rely on them to fund them a reasonable standard of living, meanwhile those pensioners of the same age who never made it on the property ladder have to live hand-to-mouth to survive, something about that doesn't sound fair, moral or right. |

No it never entered my head that you would joking especially seeing 23% of pensioners are Millionaires. You do know that a pensioner who is 67 most likely bought their home when they were early 30s over 37 years ago, I'll give you a example, Freddie Mercury bought a cottage in Kensington in 1985 for £500,000, his ex partner has put it up for sale for £30 million, the only reason most pensioners are classed as millionaires it the value of their property, which makes them asset rich and cash poor. Give you a example you said about a lady having to sell her house for social care. No way would I call her a millionaire would you . As things stand, around 80% of pensioners live in homes they own outright. Not all millionaire obviously |

Them Spongers has you call them pay towards your wage and very Generous employment pension. |
