Pent Up Posted July 21, 2010 Report Share Posted July 21, 2010 Should be worth a watch. Probably filmed 6 months ago though so probably will be full on ramping from the BBC. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Pent Up Posted July 21, 2010 Report Share Posted July 21, 2010 No one else watching this? It's quite good so far. I nice dose of realism from the presenter. You can save £46000 by waiting for prices to fall! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
deflation Posted July 21, 2010 Report Share Posted July 21, 2010 (edited) I'm already annoyed by the implication that your one and only home is an 'investment.' It's a HOME. Only ones you don't live in are investments. Edited July 21, 2010 by deflation Quote Link to post Share on other sites

lulu Posted July 21, 2010 Report Share Posted July 21, 2010 Linda crapper?! Did I hear that right. She's a knob! Bloke talking sense. It is exactly people like this who I would love to see get their fingers burnt. I wonder what her £2million porfolio wil be worth when IR's go up to sensible levels...

Goat Posted July 21, 2010 Report Share Posted July 21, 2010 I'm already annoyed by the implication that your one and only home is an 'investment.' It's a HOME. Only ones you don't live in are investments. It's an investment from which you consume the proceeds by living in it rather than renting it out to someone else. Doubt you'll ever make a larger investment in your life - pretty certain I won't. The idea that by muttering the magic word "home" you can suspend any thoughts of making your investments rationally is what's got us into this godawful mess in the first place.

Confounded Posted July 21, 2010 Report Share Posted July 21, 2010 Classic, short term prices are weak because we are in a credit crunch but on average houses go up 4% per year* doubling your investment regularly so you cant go wrong long term. *Average taken during 60 year credit bubble for which the crunch is trying to purge Quote Link to post Share on other sites
deflation Posted July 21, 2010 Report Share Posted July 21, 2010 If he's such a prudent saver, why is he accepting 1.4% interest? There are dozens of accounts paying more than that. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
moonriver Posted July 21, 2010 Report Share Posted July 21, 2010 You know what this show needs. FP! Yes as FP was on the first 2 shows of this series, I was hoping he would pop up there again, but it looks like, unfortunately he is not on this week. Good to see a spokesman for the savers, for a change though. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

deflation Posted July 21, 2010 Report Share Posted July 21, 2010 That's what iceland was about ... He hadn't been risky. He said he was getting 4.5% in 2007. Most of them are too loyal I expect. I've moved or closed 4 a/c in the last 18 months. ING, AA, Lloyds all had good short-term stuff. Most people, despite moaning, really can't be ars*d, Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Abstra Posted July 21, 2010 Report Share Posted July 21, 2010 I have to say I'm disappointed too. I want to join the vicars savers group. The Vicar should stick to giving emotion support, relationship guidance and assisting others with there mild mental health issues. Money is the root of all Evil apparently. Just look at his flock. The country's going to shit and they want government action on there bloody savings. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
