He would effectivly have a Ł100,000 income so it might affect any benifets he gets.

Note that is what I would expect someone on benifets not Steve himself.

Go away - this has been done before! He doesn't get benefits - do you know anything - he gets a much deserved army pension! What benefits do you get then?

I don't get any benefits, nosey parker.

And yes, I read that he got benefits on either this forum or DS.

HE GETS A MILITARY PENSION. It's not the same as benefits. Try to absorb that fact. How come YOUR benefits aren't anyone's business but you're fascinated by whether Steve gets them?

If you care to read what I've said, I don't get benefits (if that's any interest to you). I work for a living and have savings.

I read that his military pension is not a lot and with a litter of eight kids I don't doubt he get's benefits. Therefore winning the 100k might affect those payments.

I'm not particularly fascinated by Steve's financial situation, but the difference between me and Steve is - he is in the public eye and I am not.

I did read what you said, and I didn't care for it, to be frank. Anyway, in response...

Firstly, I couldn't give a monkey's what you get. You're the one who called someone "nosey parker" for asking.

Secondly, what you know about the military and military pensions I could obviously write on the head of a pin. What's more, maybe his wife works, ever thought of that? Incidentally, it's HIGHLY derogatory to refer to someone's family as a "litter".

Lastly, Because Steve is in the BB house and has no legs, it seems to be a source of endless fascination for the shallow to dig into his financial affairs. You are not the DSS. Entry into the BB house is not means-tested.

Considering he is on a military pension umm... no, probably not.

Yes if hes on benefits he will have too much capital to make a claim if he wins.

Well, he won't win so this is a bit of a pointless (and intrusive) speculation.
