Re: Kevin and Kochie
I understand the humour attached.
I just don't think abuse of the English language should be lauded or encouraged, and is certainly not in least bit funny when literacy standards in the modern world are abysmal.
And yet you call those that use the language correctly, less mentally gifted?
Thankyou.

Re: Kevin and Kochie
Got nothing to do with typing skills, it's called being literate.
But well done.

Re: Kevin and Kochie
I know several people, either retired or about to retire, whose financial advisers (to whom they pay megabucks, apparently in ignorance of the many streams of commission falling into the hands of the advisers from the various funds) have told them "don't worry about anything, just hold on and it will all be fine".
Meanwhile they have watched their capital dwindle in hundreds of thousands. They are not in a position to go back to work to replace this lost capital.
The fact that if they'd been advised to switch to cash ,maybe at the beginning of this year, the advisers would have had their income streams switched off would never occur to them.
Yes, I agree. Any idealistic notion that financial planners/advisers exist for the benefit of their clients is naive in the extreme.

Re: Kevin and Kochie
I wouldn't employ someone with such appalling literacy, and anyone would be negligent to do so, for that exact reason.
But when lawyers and judges start analysing your notes, it certainly helps.

Re: Kevin and Kochie
yes but thats the thing , IF im hiring a lawyer im paying for his previous schooling and the thing is I am hiring him. get it ? my unschooled dollars are paying his bills........ same as if i wanted a bobcat operator , i wouldnt hire one that had a piece of paper saying he did a course , i would hire one that could drive the machine......
i have no asperations to be a lawyer or a judge and admit that with my SCHOOL educational skills i would be peesin in the wind even to think about trying . But i do have asperations to travel the world like grasshopper totally self funded while leaving a nice little step up for those close to me by the time im 50 and so far im pretty darn close to it....
i suppose its what one wants out of life , if you want to be a lawyer/judge/brain surgeon one must learn the skills involved .
if one wants to be a early retiring bogan that uses spellcheck when needed, so be it

Re: Kevin and Kochie
I think occupation can have a lot to do with it. Eighteen or so years in the building industry have turned my handwriting into child like squiggles. And my literacy and grammar struggle at the best of times(I came in at the top 1% for English in NSW at school yr 10 as well). If you constantly use it in your profession, then obviously it’s a kept skill. If your work is mainly hands on then it’s easily lost. The use of computers makes the paperwork easier. That and hire underlings to do it.
Some of the richest men I know personally have terrible literacy so I don’t think it’s that much of a burden. Funny that a lot started off a lot like Nun.
Way Off topic but
