Greyman 27,398 Posted May 23, 2020 Report Share Posted May 23, 2020 So now your investments are making up your wages, I have mates that made a few million on bit coin when it first come about they don’t go around pretending they got rich grafting, by pointing out the property investments you have made confirms what I said, you come on giving it the usual bollacks that your earning all this money laying bricks when in truth your rental income and investments is what’s keeping your wages looking healthy, for someone just laying bricks on a site you are not earning what you claimed at the start, and when you break it down and add in recessions and house market crash’s etc it’s just another job with another wage no better or worse than others Quote Link to post Share on other sites
