End of Rosie's BTL empire dreams

MUAHAHAHAHA
Guess we see more of the same - so called celebs in similar situation - I really need to read about Krusty, property porn Phil, and Beeny similarly in the cr@p before I can see a silver lining.

Classic stuff, after being broke in 2005 and broke again in 2008.
'Frankly, London was so full of people on City bonuses that I had forgotten I was not on one myself,' said mother-of-four Miss Millard.
This one is good as well;
'Her spending came to a 'grinding halt' when she realised that it was not just the mortgage which she could not afford. She was also struggling to find the money for her children's school meals.'
So much for her so called BTL advice in the papers then.

I read this earlier today, it made me laugh as I know people at work who have lived their lives this way. They appear to be in denial and lack any responsibility in their pursuit of a never ending champagne lifestyle. What worries me is that us prudent lot will end up paying in the long run and the government appears to be encouraging it with their policy of rewarding bad investment with tax payers money!
Get me out of this madhouse!!!!

It's a shame the wonderful spoof site www.rosiemillard.com seems to have finally lost its battle to keep its domain name. There's still a cached version, but without the pictures its not quite the same.

Ah, she's at it in the Independent, too.

Cokers rather than PS3, Butlins rather than Club Med, BHS rather than Debenham, indeed.
Anyway it's good see this lady still retains some sense of humor in such understandably panicky situation.

I don't give a damn about her, and nobody else does either.

I see Statto's gone bust. Oh Dear ! Horses are a safer bet than BTL.

Has this woman got no pride? Not only does she appear not to find it in the slightest bit embarrassing to be in this position she actually tells everyone while making light of it.
