We've reached the point in the UK where working full time doesn't actually mean anything anymore.
It used to mean stability. It used to mean you could afford a home, eat properly, maybe go away once a year and not panic if your car made a weird noise.
Now it just means nothing.
You wake up early, work all day, come home tired, and still somehow sit there wondering how you're going afford everything.
Rent is ridiculous. Bills are constant. Food prices change depending on the mood of the supermarket.
And wages? Basically frozen in time.
You're not lazy. You're not bad with money. You're just trying to survive in a system where everything goes up except what you get paid.
The UK economy has produced a generation of 30-year-olds who can't afford to leave home, can't afford to have kids, can't afford to retire, and can't afford to take a sick day.
Real Betis fans throw stuffed animals and toys onto the pitch for charity which are collected and given to children after the game. 🤩
It's an annual tradition to ensure disadvantaged children don't go without a gift at Christmas. 🎄
Beautiful tradition. ♥️
