In 1987 het ek begin met so R650 voor aftrekkings .... baie jare gewerk voor ek meer as R 1000 huis toe gevat het, NA aftrekkings - elke keer as die pay styg vat die medies en belasting net meer weg ..... en nou maak daai R 1 000 nie eens my STANDAARD tenk vol nie ...

Re: Spur - 1973
Started working in the early-mid 70's as an appy Hotel manager for R86 / month plus board and lodging. Spurs were something new then, and I can remember getting my occasional junk-food fix at the local one (there was only one in those days) .... they made an awesome double thick malt milkshake.
Currency was ½, 1, 2, 5, 10, 20, 50 cent coins (there were some silver 1 Rand coins in circulation, but very few) - banknotes were R1, R5 and R10. The R2 note only came along later after the R1 note was replaced with a nickel coin. When the R20 note was introduced later still everyone complained about inflation and the diminishing value of the Rand!
Now be careful who you call an old toppie, lest I come whack you with my walking stick!

Re: Spur - 1973
Good to see that you have a sense of humour about it! So much better (for you as well) than being all bitter and twisted!
Reminds me of a client I once had (passed on now), a double amputee (legs) .... at our first meeting he was trying to get from his car into a wheelchair. I stood forward to assist and asked if I could give him a hand. I will never forget, with a big grin he replied "No thanks, hands I've got, it's legs that I need". The man had an awesome spirit, nothing, but nothing seemed to ever get him down, always a ready smile. :razz:

R110 salaris : R2,50 = 2,27% om die tenk vol te maak
Kom ons vat nou n salaris van R 20 000, nou vat dit R 1 000 om n gewone tenk vol te maak = 5%
en dis nie asof baie mense R20k verdien nie - en tog moet hulle ook ry om by die werk te kom !! en dan nog die tol paaie .....
