Rupert_Baehr Posted February 17, 2012 Share Posted February 17, 2012 According to the article, he chooses to do so so that he can save up to buy a house. Why shouldn't he do that if he wants to? The article also says he works for 30 hours a week tuning pianos. If he worked for 40 hours a week tuning pianos, presumably he would earn more?

tinfoilhat Posted February 17, 2012 Share Posted February 17, 2012 Never thought I'd wish for CX3000 to re-appear! Think youre being mean there. They are thoughtful, sometimes hopeful and (unless youre a landlord then look out ) never nasty. They are sometimes barking though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tony Erikson Posted February 17, 2012 Share Posted February 17, 2012 Will always support Chemist on this issue. He helps raise awareness on a very important issue. There is a problem with housing in this country. If you don't care, stay away. If you don't understand, stay away. If all you wish to do is slate the OP for giving a ****, again, stay away. Keep up the good work Chemist. Some of us do read your post. Tenner says if any of the other posters hit hard times and needed housing they would look to social housing. It would be a shame if there was none left due to apathy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
