If you think what Scablifter lifted from the internet is impresive you should see what the Government (many different Governments in fact) can lift.

Got to remember at 15 years old collage or university isnt too far away for some living away from home for the first time nice to have some preps in place and learn how to err make home brew

Let's give an simple example :- The Nat West banking glitch meant that some people didn't get paid, and those who were the type who lived on take away with empty cupboards would have been desperate and hungry quickly... we wouldn't.

I have a strategy, it's not written in stone, nor can it be, this scenario has too many variables, everything about it depends on those variables, being specific is not possible.
