Johnny Storm Posted June 2, 2008 Share Posted June 2, 2008 Its pretty clear houseprices are going down, and we have all learned a very valuable lesson about the dangers of property speculation, and making wreckless loans. I disagree, I dont think the average person is anywhere near learning anything. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eightiesgirly Posted June 2, 2008 Share Posted June 2, 2008 I disagree, I dont think the average person is anywhere near learning anything. My hairdresser told me that her 20 year old son is looking to buy a property soon as a pension. (Argggghhh). Seems like you are so right.

General Melchett Posted June 2, 2008 Share Posted June 2, 2008 I disagree, I dont think the average person is anywhere near learning anything. Agree 100%.... The only friend, colleague or relation I've spoken to in 2008 who's 'Got It' is my old man, who used to work in credit/ risk control in a bank, but took early retirment about 10-15 years ago, presumably because his services were no longer required. And certainly none of the people trying to sell houses for new market ceilings in my street have got it. Oh no, we are still an intensely dumb country.

Johnny Storm Posted June 2, 2008 Share Posted June 2, 2008 The point when people will start to realise. 1) Everyone knows someone who had their home repossessed. 2) Everyone knows or knows someone who knows someone who had BTL empire who is now bankrupt. 3) Everyone accepts that property is not an investment, it is somewhere to live. Its started, lets give it 9 months to hatch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Skint Academic Posted June 2, 2008 Share Posted June 2, 2008 Of course what would be really irresponsible would be to include this in a post with no explanation ... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rustyfunk Posted June 2, 2008 Share Posted June 2, 2008 The image that rustyfunk posted is very IRRESPONSIBLEIt is not obviously a doctored image and can easily be used to compound a rumour, leading to a self-fullfilling prophecy, STUPID Oh, for Gods sake! That is so obviously a doctored image its funny - to the point of me being so bad, I feel a bit embarrased about posting it, tbh. If you think otherwise you may want to get your eyes tested. Note how the perspective is wrong, and the signage is a wierd colour and doesnt match the logo, and how it generally looks like what it is - a 5 minutes to make photoshop fake made from a NR photo pinched from the Daily Hate - etc etc, If people start a run on a bank because of that, then i'll eat mine, yours, and fat kirsty hats in one sitting. Its much more likely a run will start if it becomes obvious B&B are NRII. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It aint gonna start a run mate. and if it was to do so, that would only be becuase the bugger was about to go under any moment anyway.....oooopps! No, only joking.
