Originally posted by scooterscot View PostI'm telling you the housing market is next. Why? Because you don't pay a mortgage (which you think is cheap today) when down the road ( 2-3 year from now) there is a bigger nicer property for 40% less, and even costs less per month to service. People just don't get it. Been alive long enough to see this happen twice over, and folks are waking into the same situation with a massive amount of hubris.
The virus is going to decimate the economy this year and many people risk losing jobs or getting shunted onto statutory sick pay at a measly £94 a week. Can't pay their bills and debts with that.
tulip is about to get real for those surviving on debt, if they survive the virus.
Hence, the government who are also off their tits on debt will find a way of 'making it all go away'. Who will end up paying that price?Maybe tomorrow, I'll want to settle down. Until tomorrow, I'll just keep moving on.Comment
