Might have been the old lady paying the £15 a week! she could have led a fantastic life spending any money she earned on enjoying herself until such time she needed to be looked after, with no savings etc the government pick up the tab!

Indeed. My mother could have done so, so much more with the £200K she (astonishingly) had amassed than hose it into a care home.
