2. younger people again not everyone go out partying night before even though they know they have to work next day or are lazy on jobs. whys that?
3. with the talk of welfare card for certain ones not allowing alcohol, ciggies and go to atm machine, why do some have a problem with it, would alot of it be because they cant pay cash for second hand stuff at markets and gumtree or be able to buy food at markets and stuff or want their ciggies?
4. why do some people go through so many boyfriends or girlfriends in a short time these days same goes with school kids? is it because of question 1 they want it now and rush into it and dont get to know the person properly

1. Some new furniture can be almost as cheap as second hand furniture, it is just not as good quality.
When I was 21 I bought my first house. I filled the house with decent quality brand new furniture. Did not finance any of it since I had enough cash from working hard.
As for cars, new car finance is quite cheap these days. No wonder so many people take advantage of it when they can get a new car with modern features and modern safety equipment.
2. Some people do party too hard before work, but this is not just young people. At my work place everyone who has failed the breath test has been aged over 35. Half the work place are under 35 though.
3. I don't like that some welfare scum bags waste our money on cigs, booze and gambling. But not everyone on welfare are this stupid. As you said just because someone on welfare wants cash, doesn't mean they will be blowing it on stupid things.
I don't support a welfare card even though I hate dole bludgers that blow money.
4. Meh who cares how many partners others go through. Personally I haven't been though many, but I have mates who have had eight girlfriends in the time period I have had two.
Probably doesn't help he has met is last few on Tinder. Not a place to find a long term relationship, but he keeps trying.
