My best friend comes from a fairly wealthy family, him and his sisters when they were young adults would get paid from the dad's company a couple grand a month. They didn't do any work. I wasn't jealous or envious, not in my nature to be that way BUT I could never understand how the taxman never investigated and I think the company was audited once.
