I am not a well off person you could say but to cut a long story short i have not seen any family since 2015 even after i had a leg amputated  since i have Refused to lie to cover for there actions so decided last week i was leaving the what they deserve Nothing.

So have been spending the money i would have left them but today booked another cruise for next year to go with the other 2 i had already booked, Iona in April, Britannia in June and and Ventura in i think Sept.

Not been on holiday since i had my leg amputated in 2019 but going to make up for it next year by going 3 cruises.

Even made a couple of large donations to Charities i support .

 

Living the Dream. 😎😎😎

Thank You hopefully meet some fantastic people like i met on my last cruise.

Not the kind of people i would normally socialise with Business Owner , Accountant but we just seem to click and we were in stitches every night at dinner.

The people i met made a big part of the cruise so enjoyable.

Take Care

Thank You yes i am now always thought of family first like there Mother/Grandma did but they treated her like dirt till the day she died then grabbed everything they could, just another one of those stories you hear about family grabbing as much as they can well they treated me like dirt but i making sure ll money and everything of value goes to Charity.

Still getting use to spending lot's of money on myself but feels good now i'm getting the hang of it.

That made me laugh,, a lot.

 

I brought up two kids single handed and had a friend in the same position.  As I am sure lots did, we counted pennies on the table, and got very excited when the Scouts had a Jumble Sale, and we bought bags of stuff for our kids and feeding them and paying our mortgages were a priority.

 

Anyway, we both eventually had new Partners, and both of them weren't short of a bob or two, but we both have trouble in spending.  She goes cold outside M and S because she says she used to get their stuff for 10p😚. I get told off because I often say "What..you're paying that??"  Especially in restaurants if he picks something over £20 or so.  Can't help it...  he tries to laugh at me now. I bought some pricey (for me) cosmetics a while back as a treat and felt guilty for days.

 

So I know exactly how you feel Captain Pugwash!!  It's ingrained in us.😀

My mother was the same never spent much but turned out she had £10,000's of pounds planked about the house we found when she died, i think she was still in War Mode of being thrifty but as i said like money other families have experienced all them grabbing as much as they can including a couple of mine who could by and sell the whole family put together but as i say the chance to make there Fat Bank Books they grab every penny with both hands. Just a shame i had refused to take money from my Mother when buying anything on Credit she would always off me the Cash to pay for it so the so called @family benefited from my morals of not milking for every penny i could like they did.

Yeah somebody who knows how 'difficult' it can be sometimes to spend money on yourself, mine used to be i would see something i liked then think do i need it then not bother buying it. Now it's See It Buy It No 'family' to leave my money to so spend it on myself while alive and Charity get's every penny and everything of value so there is nothing left for them.

Those three cruise will let me put to good use the expensive camera equipment i bought with 'there' money before being donated to Charity in my Will..

As they say you never know when your tie on this earth will come to a end i'm making sure every is arranged before i go so they have no say over anything. 🙂
