i am working and have always saved a small percentage of my wages for a rainy day fund and this account is currently fairly healthy - i don't think i should be penalised for being sensible. As a taxpayer, i don't think that my practical habit of saving should count against me when it comes to claiming job seekers (or whatever).
It is just me or does anyone else find it unbelievable that you are allowed 20k in savings and still be entitled to SW?

I don't think you can penalize people for savings.
If two people got made redundant and one had 20k in savings and another blew 20k and all their savings on a car last week, you're telling me only one is entitled to SW?
