Ah now I get it! You're talking about the knob-jockeys you see on property ladder and the like?Originally posted by sasguru View PostFair enough. But there are also loads of self-indulgent people who'll buy stuff they don't need and can't afford in order to show they have an "aspirational lifestyle". They deserve what they get.

etc.The court heard Darren Upton had written a letter to Judge Sally Cahill QC saying he wasn’t “a typical inmate of prison”.
But the judge said: “That simply demonstrates your arrogance continues. You are typical. Inmates of prison are people who are dishonest. You are a thoroughly dishonestly man motivated by your own selfish greed.”Comment
