They took 56 quid in total from selling the 2nd hand dvds.

Son#2 held on to all of this, and went round today giving others in the family their wages, the condescending little ratbag. Son#1 squawked at a measly tenner, whilst swmbo and i were slightly nonplussed at the way he gave us 3quid each and told us to "buy yourself something nice".

So, i toldim that as it is time to go back to the station off to boredom skool, and he can dang well get his own tube and train tickets, out the door he went and NO train fare either. That'll learnim...
 
Sounds too me like he has learnt lesson number three....

Once youve got the money, Keep it!

Stuffs up future team work tho', creates a dog eat dog amongst people who should be supporting each other. That will be a much harder lesson that shows that short term gains are not the be all & end all.
 
Yeah, thats lesson number 4, but only the truely enlightened will reach that stage!!

And usually not before the age of 40.

Nothing to do with needing to learn wimpy lets all play Ring a Ring o' Roses together girlie playgound team crap. Son #2 is actually developing into a rabid little socialist /forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif.

Takes all the money, gives it out to those who he thinks most need it, so not as wages related to worth but as social benefit payments, and considering himself being the most needy kept most. So TCM and wife who are considered the least needy, well not needy at all in the eyes of any socialist, get next to nothing in their benefit package and should consider themselves lucky that they got that.

Lesson Son #2 needs to learn is that most of what was earnt from the enterprise should go to the advisors who came up with the money making idea and who demonstrated the entrepreneurship i.e. to TCM and wife, and only to himself if he was himself the entrepreneur. Some goes to the workers (only needs to be a little because the current socialist government will subsidise their wages by means of paying and providing them with social benefits, so very cool /forums/images/graemlins/cool.gif) and the rest minus his meagre living costs invested in the moneymaking ideas that TCM and wife, and later in his life other clever ones will rush to his door with in order to share in and help him protect his developing wealth /forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif.
 
um, think he is safe from contracting socialist tendencies at this rate. I only say this because he popped the three quid in my top pocket and then *patted* my pocket with broad smile in that infuriating eastenderish manner whilst telling me to get myself something nice. I toldim i didn't need anything "nice" and he sed "well then maybe your wife might enjoy a night out". Git.
 
You're missing a trick here. In a couple of years you'll be able to play the 'aged, decrepid and skint parent' bit. Then, when the 'git' puts a seasons cruising kitty in your top pocket, just try and look grateful- but still skint- (rather than machevellian and heading off to the sun for a couple of months) /forums/images/graemlins/laugh.gif
