So, get this right, there are loads of single grannies and shit who are gonna die this week with no family.
So I was wondering, it makes no difference to them, so what someone could do, right, is marry them on their deathbed (the priest will already be there reading their last rights), and score yourself £2k. I reckon you could probably make this a weekly thing. Maybe more if you worked in an old crone's home.

BOOM, one up on the system.

it only applies within certain ages and there's a time limit for applying
i claimed it for my dad when my mum died, because she'd been paying NI and tax all her life, but never got a pension. i knew about it from work, but not one person told us about it throughout all the bureaucracy of dealing with registering a death and burying someone. and when i went to get the forms from the jobcentre, nobody knew where they were.
we gave it to a stroke charity, which was why i'd claimed it, but it's annoying that lots of people would really need that money and wouldn't know/be helped to get it.

I can't believe you would milk the system just for a little stroke.

You watch, all those millions of benefits cheats that're all living in mansions
and single-handedly causing economic crashes will be all over this little loop-hole. Tidy little profit, that.

Excellent idea Gonz. Perhaps you would have time to get a leg-over before they popped their clogs.

I can't justify spending that sort of money on myself all the while I'm spending so much on other things

you could buy some more Green Flash, perhaps even splash out on a pair of Toms!
