LOL Yabby, that was 25 years ago and times were different then [my girlfriend attended a public school] and always hoped for a large family with her hubby. They were blessed! lol.

Hi Paul, Bazz, Nairbe, Yabby, Pelican, OUG, Raw Mustard, SM, Pelican, Belly, Otokonoko, 579, Samsung, Hasbeen,and anyone who posts before this thread is taken off or has aged; thankyou for giving to other Aussies reading all of your brilliant generous concepts!

*and always hoped for a large family with her hubby. They were blessed! lol.*

Well in that case, they can be blessed to work harder, to feed all
the little darlings :)

We live by the consequences of our actions, IMHO anyhow.

Its all great Yabby, the eldest four work hard and contribute to the household expenses and my girlfriend and hubby have owned their own home in private business for many years. Family get togethers are wonderful happy occasions; love and hard work won out!

""" So I try to bring a balance. You, uninformed knocker versus my
wisdom :) """

Yes of course Sensei, you're so wise old one!

I'll just keep as much of my own money in my own pocket and help those that I feel are more deserving, how's that sound? :)

Why degrade someone if they differ in your opinion Yabby?

Raw Mustard I would not be concerned about Yabby's comments given that Yabby has a history on OLO for 'standing' up for large corporations who give him the option of a free market to purchase his goods and services. This includes placing CEOs on a pedestal.

Although I have noticed Yabby takes into consideration any "unskilled"? workers who perform manual work. "Unskilled"? as a result of people carrying out manual hand picking work.

There is a skill to absolutely any work performed Yabby including any type of work conducted in the food chain industries.

However I comprehend the point you are trying to make albeit with the slip you made regarding people who you may view as 'unskilled'.
