    Basically it should mean that you have/get enough money to support yourself/family without becoming an unreasonable burden to the state, i.e. you would need public funds to have enough money. I do not know what HO's stance is on income through parents, etc.

    One point I forgot is comprehensive sickness insurance. HO believes that you are not covered by NHS if you are self-sufficient. NHS seems to think otherwise.
