I know that self employed joiners,builders,electricians etc like being paid in cash. I wonder why?


I think you will find most might want cash for minor jobs, if the job runs into hundreds/thousands no as when they take the money to the bank questions will be asked where the money come from re money laundering.

No, the taxman, nice to have some jobs untaxed, to up the profit margins for the little guy in a van.
When we reach the cashless society control will be complete…the Canadian government sanctioned demonstrating truck drivers by freezing their bank accounts, try living without a bank account even nowadays.



Ya right Snowy and one day the penny will drop, But unfortunately it will be way to late by then.

just wonder what the rough sleepers and charity bucket rattlers will do if we ever reach the cashless stage. can just see em carrying a card swipe machine around with them in a shop doorway when they want a bit of cash for a drink.

You obviously haven’t been to central London lately.


I was in London last weekend and they still exist. We were on the tube when this young pregnant woman got on carrying a nice looking collecting cup and piece of cardboard listing all her problems which she held up. A guy opposite pulled out a ten pound note a gave it to her but nobody else did.
I wondered if they were a team.
Our lass said the problem was figuring out if they were genuine which is nigh impossible.

know for a fact that in coventry in the late 90,s there was a hire a dog scheme going on where so called rough sleepers were doing that to get more money. or was it dog walkers doing an impression of me when i take the dogs out in old clothes unshaven.

There was a documentary a while back about Rumanians begging in London, they were making £200 plus a day.
