Fuck them all, I say. Pass a law and laugh as they go ballistic. only problem then is actual enforcement, which the powers that be are typically useless at ☹️

I'm not across the logic of these people. Their children can't handle gluten and dairy, but their immune systems can adequately cope with polio and smallpox?

A lot of people fail to see the real dangers of gluten. Have a look at this link and you might not be quite so judgemental

Im sure there's more to this than the guy in the article is letting on and burying your head in the sand isn't a great tactic for dealing with the taxman
An experienced lawyer (in his fifties, graduated 1993) earning $52k a year? He's doing it wrong.
I suspect his income may be more than his stated salary.
Also no sympathy as he's trying it on to pay less than he owes.
-
The exchange rate in the late '90s was probably around NZ$4 to the pound, so that lawyer should have been able to pay his $16K debt off almost painlessly instead of sticking his head in the sand and hoping it would evaporate.
Not very sensible or responsible, but he was probably operating under the misguided assumption that he'd never want to return to his country of birth.
-
It's the interest that kills you but a lot of people go overseas with no intention of ever paying back a student loan, so no sympathy from me.
I had a modest student loan and paid it off within 6 months after moving to the USA when the exchange rate was in my favour.

What a loser this guy is. I wouldn't want anyone to know the extent of my stupidity. He got absolutely skewered on stuff in the comments

@Chris-B. was only $3.30 to £1 when I went in 1999, got to $3.65 in about 2000/2001, and was on the hige slide when I left in 2005 but was lucky to get $2.94 with my last cheque back to NZ, get buggar all with the birthday cheques form the in-laws now!

There was pretty much zero sympathy for him, I think being a lawyer probably didn't help much if he did a nursing degree or something I think they wouldn't have been so excoriating .
