If you and i go to dinner and I pay for your meal, do you deserve to eat it?

What if I pay for you and your wife to go and eat next week?

I'd be grateful, but who decides whether I deserve to eat it or not, God?

Then someone your family worked hard enough or got lucky enough to cover for you. Which makes it entirely deserved.

My parents got a free tertiary education and government jobs and bought a house and just rode the capital gains. Not so easy today.

Everyone deserves to eat.

Everyone deserves to eat.

That's a relief. Let's eat!

Everyone deserves to eat.

Even mass murderers, serial killers and Matt Lodge?

Night mate, night Frank, night Mary Ellen.
I had a thing for Mary Ellen.

Ohh so you get to walk in we are having dinner and demand that you get fed too?

Your own labor does.

Let him eat some cake

Let him eat some cake

2 Thessalonians 3:10
"For even when we were with you, we gave you this command: If anyone is not willing to work, let him not eat."

You're paying though, I didn't do any labour for this nosh up

Excellent company no doubt

Not going down the Thessalonian rabbit hole, what did they know, they thought the Earth was flat.

How does that make it deserved

I'd say it's deserved because it was honestly gained. Okay, "honesty" doesn't come into it if you inherited a certain level of wealth from Great Uncle Bulgaria who left you with Tree Fiddy, that's luck - as in, GUB liked you enough to leave you that Tree Fiddy largely, but, if you put up with GUB's Warriors fandom and took him him to and from games/watched games with him, it's also from hard work, misery and mental anguish, so it's deserved!

I moved into my house thanks to The Bank of Mum and Dad. The family all agree I got my inheritance early, wills are altered accordingly, spreadsheets are kept of what alternative investment M&D could have made rather than helping me (Bank deposit) so siblings are given what they deserve at the appropriate point/points.

I've made alterations to the house but don't expect them to add anything to it's value as the next owner might hate them and reverse them...

Every wealthy family at some point started from scratch

Seriously, you have no idea how bad it is out there.

This is a serious question, what do you discuss around the dinner table with the wife and kids?

What's with the obsession with the dinner table talk of posters who lean left.

Franks dinner conversations will be way weirder.

Why New Zealanders are migrating to Australia in record numbers

The government may not be able to reverse the trend, which one Kiwi describes as abandoning “a sinking boat”.

www.smh.com.au

Here’s a reasonable explanation. NZ just can’t compete with what Australia can offer in wages and a way of life that’s a draw for some. Many often return later in life but unfortunately we’ve missed what they contribute to our economy in their working careers

There are more non professional people leaving for Oz as it has always been. The untrained, unqualified have way more lucrative job opportunities in Australia then here. Nothing has changed. If Australia has a general wage difference of +25% and you are on the bones of your arse here, why wouldn't you go? As approx 600k have.
