Can anyone say if

£200 to go out with yer mates, lol.������

Say £24 for the match ( but if money's tight go adult concession) so that leaves £176......say £4 per pint, cheaper pints are available. £176 >>>>>44 pints or 42 and a kebab or 40 a kebab and taxi up the rd or 38 pints and a kebab taxi up the rd and a coupon or miss the kebab taxi and coupon and £176 enough for about 8 nights in the pub.

£200 for a day / night out is normal for me - no kebabs and no coupon. Maybe I'm just a good bit wealthier than most?

I have more money but can I afford more of what are considered luxuries now than I could back then? Not really. I usd to go out with my £22, few pints before the match, pub after then have a good night with mates and a kebab on the way home (walking home up the Hilltown of course). £22 doesn't even get you into the match these days and that kind of day / night out is probably ten times the cost now. In truth I can't really afford £200 for a day / night out right now.

So no, I'm not really wealthier.

Just think of the money you would have saved if you had not become a Dundee supporter and attended home games at Dens Park.
You might be a millionaire by now.

I know there are plenty food banks,food distribution for small fees.
Homeless food shelters and vans that go out to help feed the homeless and distribute shoes,clothes etc.

Nail bars and tanning shops I will need to take your word for it.

And bookies and pubs and clubbies.

Choices choices choices.

Don't mention that, I don't have many regrets but that's certainly one of them.

Joining the racist organisation that is the RAF is another.

Sorry just picked this up. At last you get the point. How is independence going to make Scotland richer? It's not about the Barnett Formula or Westminster imo. What is going to happen to Scotland that independence will make us wealthier? Who has policies that actually have some economic credibility? What are they? I am not expecting you to say what they are, but surely it is not unreasonable to ask the SNP MSP's how they intend to help Scotland to grow wealthier. As a starter, I would cancel the Green pact and get back to investing in the resources in the North Sea. Don't spend the revenue on current consumption but set up a sovereign fund like Norway.

If you do not spend the revenue from the North Sea on current consumption to set up a sovereign fund like Norway were are you going to get the money to replace this revenue.
You cannot spend the same revenue from the North Sea twice.
I know that some pro independence supporters would do this to justify people being better off in an independent Scotland.

Numbers in all these are well in decline and will continue sadly.
Maybe there is a nail bar boom tho.
