Maybe he should downsize if his home is costing him that much to run
Oh that is a shame he is so sexy
It doesn't matter how much he earns, but it does demonstrate he can't the manage money he does get. What is he doing about it? Whinging about it to the media is not a solution.
I agree, but soaps have a magic money tree lol. One minute, a soap character is so skint, and the next they are rich haha
Well, from this very article, he is trying to manage his money, he is doing things about it! He isn't 'whinging' about it, simply having a conversation about it, like we all probably have.
Someone in that "article" say they pay £200 a month just on the electric. That seems very high.
Mine has actually come down Gas was £55 to £25 and Electric £83 to £55
£200 sounds incredibly high.
Does it demonstrate that? He says what he's doing about it - going to bed early.
So Jack, the important question **drum roll**. Do you find Daniel Brocklebank, sexy or not sexy?
If I am being honest, nah, he isn't really my type!
Well his energy bills must have gone through the roof with his big house that he has got
Are you saying well off people are not suffering like the rest of us. If everything has gone up and they are still earning the same amount of money then their lifestyle that they are used to will now disappear as they will now have to have a smaller house and smaller car and everything will have to change. If anyone is sending their kids to a public school then how will they be able to afford the fees each term. People who are used to certain lifestyle will have to make serious changes like not spending as much which means becoming like the rest of us. You may think welcome to real world but they have worked really hard to get where they are today as most people in this country have not been born with a silver spoon in their mouth
On most cases I have to agree.
Maybe he has Billy habit and growing cannabis at home
I think you're being a bit dramatic. For most reasonably well off people it's probably more of a case of just having less disposable income rather than having to downsize everything. It's still the most vulnerable people in society who are going to suffer the most. That said, I'm sure there are going to be people in well paid jobs who have stretched themselves to the limit on a mortgage for example, who may find themselves in some trouble.
The residents are quite affluent, most own businesses on the street and homes. They wear designer gear and have nice haircuts.
Cant think of anything more boring than watching a soap where the characters sit home cause they cant afford to go out except to a food bank. Really riveting stuff.
