and how many of those will be living in squalor because they think more about getting booze ,fags ,drugs and other non essentials .I have repeatedly said that in the course of my work over at least 15yrs doing refurbs on council properties i have seen people living as you describe but they still manage to have 200 tabs and a box of beer ,they still go down the club on a saturday night and still manage a tv/bb subscription ,just don't see putting a bit of paint on the walls and getting a cheap carpet as essential
