    Perhaps also she could spend some of her first 'pay packet' (FFS - she's meant to be a contractor!) on a web design course.

    I'm not sure what makes me more angry, her crass stupidity or the BBC for giving the clueless idiot a platform.

    "'I first went to Julian ten years ago when I was in my mid-20s. I needed someone willing to demystify things for me. Now I wouldn't make a financial move without asking for his help.' "

    Given her inability with all things financial, if I were Julian I would try to have that comment removed.

    Looks like this stupid woman has been stumping up and paying the banks penalty charges...no mention of the fact they are unlawful or whether she got the money back?

    Useless twat!

    This also caught my eye:

    Clickety-click

    She's obviously a complete and utter feckwit with a taste for self publicity. Her and the BBC make a good fit.

    So this would appear to be the restaurant. I notice she's also crap at written English and has gone for the 'Highest Number of Commas in One Sentence' world record - see third paragraph.

    I did 6 months there in 98 (London). I knew a few contractors in Bournemouth who stayed for years. It wasn't what I'd call high pressure, but I took a lower than usual rate for the name on my CV, and when renewal time came I got a much better offer. What were you doing?

    Anyhow, I don't give a crap how you arrange your personal affairs - if you choose to spend your money and not to have any cash in account, that's fine - your choice, but not mine and no reasonable person would want to live without safe knowledge of enough cash to last years in case of emergency - loss of contract, illness or anything.

    you're a cash timebomb !
