      Debt does matter to me - because I'm awaiting the time when it will be the ultimate cause of asset price deflation.
      No I bought my house sans mortagage and dont owe anybody a red cent - save about 150 quid currently on a credit card which at any rate I pay off every month - I have do this otherwise I have no credit rating despite owning a property and having no debts.
