Previously I have talked about a certain ‘socialist’ couple I know who were happy to ‘tax the rich’ and spend other people’s money, but hated it when they were taxed or had to pay their own living costs.
Don’t get me wrong, I am not against helping those people who are genuinely in need of help, I’m just not a fan of those who want me taxed to the hilt so that they can live a free and easy life.
I’m pretty sure you’d agree.
Do you want to work hard, earning your own pot of money, only for it to be plundered by lazy scroungers?
Well, I have recently heard that the socialist couple have split. The woman has decided to leave the relationship.
It is suspected that she is leaving for another person who… you’ll like this bit… has recently spent a lot of money on her.
There’s always ‘someone else’s’ money involved with these people!
There was talk that she was going to move out and get a flat of her own, but because she can’t afford the deposit, it seems ‘daddy dearest’ is giving her the money for the deposit.
There’s nothing wrong with family helping out family. Parents will always help their children when they need it.
The problem is… she couldn’t afford the deposit for a new flat… but she was able to afford £450 on having a series of new tattoos on her arm!
Apparently these tattoos are the start of a whole arm of tattoos she is having done.
They call it a ‘sleeve’ when the arm is completely covered in tattoos making up one piece of artwork.
When completed, that ‘sleeve’ tattoo could cost two or three thousand pounds.
Our techy guy, Andi, had a friend who had a sleeve done a few years ago for the tune of £2,000! Andi would refer to it as the ‘two grand tat.’
No, I don’t have a problem with people having tattoos as such either, it’s their money and their choice.
The problem is that there are some people who complain that they are completely skint, expect others to bail them out, and then they go and spend their own money on pointless stuff that they simply ‘want’.
This is a prime example of people choosing to spend money on what they ‘want’ over what they actually ‘need’.
What people ‘need’ is not fun or exciting. It isn’t sexy. Whereas the things people ‘want’ are fun to do or own.
A night on the beer is fun, paying your electricity bill isn’t. The cost of living itself is rather dull.
Choosing ‘want’ over ‘need’ can cause a lot of problems. It causes more ‘pain’ in the long term than the amount of ‘fun’ that was initially had doing it.
Helping people out when they genuinely need help is perfectly fine, but if the person you are helping is taking your money and then spending theirs on stuff they ‘want’ and not what they ‘need’, they are not learning the valuable lesson of standing on their own two feet.
They are selfishly using you and dare I say it… stealing your money.
OK, I may be a little harsh here, the tattoo was booked in advance and a deposit was paid which would be lost. The timing might be a coincidence.
I have previously written about how tattoos can cost you more than what you actually gain.
They may look ‘cool’, but a sleeve tattoo costing £2,000 could quite easily set you up for life.

Putting £2,000 into Betfair or a trading platform like IG could start you on your road to financial freedom and security.
In fact, the £450 spent on the tattoo by the woman I mentioned earlier would be a great starting point.
In the past I have talked about focusing on a small amount and then growing that amount with compounding.
If you started at just 1% a day on a £450 bank, you would aim to make £4.50. The following day that would be £4.54, so on and so forth.
On day 365, your target would be to make £169.84.
After one whole year of successfully compounding £450 at 1% per day, you will have £17,153.68.
Imagine what £2,000 would give you!
Obviously, with gambling and trading systems, it may not always run as smooth as that… but still, if you were able to grow £450 into £10,000 over the year, it’s far better than spending it on having ink stuck in your arm… isn’t it?
To be honest, if you turn £450 into just £2,000, that’s a better use of your money in my humble opinion, especially at these uncertain times. Who knows what your next gas or electric bill will be.
Some people are claiming that their mortgages are going up around £500 a month, that is a huge chunk of money to find and if they were able to take an initial £450 and turn it into thousands of pounds, it would be a huge help.
Our friend and veteran trader, Paul Bent, has developed a system which increases your chances of winning horse races by identifying the best races and selecting multiple horses to ensure that he wins the amount he wants to win.
This is a perfect system which would help to grow a small bank into thousands of pounds using the compounding method.
Aim to make £10 today, then £10.10 tomorrow, £10.20 the day after and so on and so forth until you are banking larger amounts each day.

PS… It takes around 10 minutes each day to identify which races to bet on and to place the bets. This is something you can pick up and drop at will if you wish and you don’t need to subscribe to a tipping service either.
Oh… and it’s TAX FREE too!
