    Even Ozzy knew the importance of a war chest !

    Day of judgement, God is calling
    On their knees, the war chests crawling
    Begging mercy for their sins
    Satan laughing, spreads his wings
    Oh lord, yeah!

    All I'm going to say, is I'm glad we have prepared accordingly.

    Really feel for others who are not in a stable situation, I believe the government could have done more, but I do have largely self employed people in my family (not contractors).
