If you're feeling beneficent

Ceri, who set up this JustGiving page[^] for her son Andrew after he lost everything in a fire, is an old friend of mine. I’ve known Andrew since he was born, and he’s an amazing kid (young man, now). He had a difficult childhood (with an abusive father) but has come through it and grown into a well-adjusted bloke determined to help others in similar situations, and has trained (and works) as a social worker. There is absolutely no reason anyone here should want to contribute, but if you are feeling generous - any amount - your help would be appreciated. They could do with all the support they can get. Thanks.

Well, indeed... the kid's young, just starting out, and not well-off. He'll learn - but I don't think he's the only young person to not prioritise insurance when they've just moved out from home and renting their first place - you have other things on your mind.

He could afford to live in Hampstead, and his mum wants joe public to buy him another flat? Whose fault was the fire, his or someone elses? If they have insurance his loss will be covered, third party. If not sue them. If its his fault, then its a lesson learned. And time to get out the tools and rebuild it.

It's rented, not owned. It was not his fault. He's just a kid, ffs. As I said, no one is obliged to help. If you don't want t for whatever reason, that's OK and you prerogative. I'm not interested in hearing why though.

Ah, OK, so it is only his possessions. So who started the fire? If it wasnt him he can claim on the insurance of the other person then. But really, crowd funding to replace £1000 worth of stuff? A bit excessive isnt it?

I pay for insurance because I hope/wish my house burns down. I'd get more that way than selling it.
