Kilosin the old days the goverment sponsored you if you had more than 3 i think it was18:22
inetprohmm... not so sure whether they got sponsored in those days18:23
superflyWe're unsure... #2 arrives in August, but I somehow doubt they're the last18:23
Kilosnot all costs etc but there were some perks18:23
Kilosi go ask swaar18:23
Kiloshe says no. i musta dreamed it18:25
Kilosmaybe langjan will know18:25
inetproKilos: I know there used to be less tax for families18:26

Kilosouch18:30
inetproone very interesting story about by grandmother was that at some point in her life she was left with a pair of surgical scissors in her body18:32
inetprosurvived for many years like that18:33
Kiloswhew18:33

inetpromy mother used to show us the story in the local papers, with xray and all18:34
Banlamo.O18:36
inetproI wish I could find that story on google today18:37
Kilosthe news paper must still have it in their archives18:37
inetproI shall have to ask my sister whether she got that story18:38
charlvnone way to escape taxation (in a legal way even) was to spend less than 180 days in any particular country18:39
charlvni used to do this but i'm not in for it anymore, now i just pay tax lol18:40
