            Yes indeed the bedrock of a rock solid marriage, cheap prostitutes, drinking and hiding income. I am betting on you growing old together.

                What if you have none of the above?

                My parents don't know...if they did they might try and charge me rent. I just show them my payslips showing minimum wage....keeps the rent cheap see.

                    My other half does, so do my parents! My Dad then likes to tell my sister-in-law (who hates me) as it's really funny watching her get all jealous and wound up over it!

                      A friend of my wife is really jealous of our lifestyle.

                      She was moaning the other day baout paying her dentist £60 for an hours treatment. The response when I said "it's not that much, it's under £500 a day!" was classic.
