If you cannot work then you'd be on £71.40 PER WEEK due to care needs. If you can't get around then add the £49.85 to it too....
£121.25 per week, plus incapacity
you must be clearing £200 per week + noncash benefits....
It's true.
Weird, but I have one friend who has various severe disabilities. He recieves a shedload of money, but actually can't manage it at all. Not because he's incapable, but just because he's reckless and has poor judgement.
The guy is broke quite a lot. Every time I go round, one new thing he blew all his cash on (Playstation 3, HD telly) has been sold, or something has been disconnected (internet, television, elecricity).
