That we will unfortunately only find out after this is all over .. think the disposal income will decrease substantially :(

I'm already starting to worry. From usually having 15-20k extra per month and that slowly building up usually to be dumped into the bond or whatever, I see my last 2 months literally broke even with a couple hundred left in my account despite the interest rate cuts and full saving.

Month one I thought, Nah Corona and lockdown planning but again and this I haven't experienced in decades after knowing what it's like to have fuckall, I always try to make sure I live below my means and extra for a rainy day but seems my means are increasing mighty fast while I'm just sitting at home working.

Now I'm questioning myself about paying the school, gardener, maid, carwash guy etc in advance because I thought it was the right thing to do when technically I'm doing all those things now and carrying the costs. Yes, I'm still getting a salary which I'm actually still working for mind you. Now technically, they can all still claim from the relief funds for not working and get double so is it right or wrong, I don't know anymore.

Boet, what they claim for is their moral dilemma not yours. Paying in advance, I would say that is a luxury, by your own admission you can't afford. Skip it and you give yourself a payment break. No point in you getting knocked out then everyone suffers
