I read the already hand picked doom articles each day on Motley Fool and housepricecrash. Main reason is I look after my own investment pot and want to try and time investing it. If I do it well I'll be sitting pretty, if I balls it up I'll be doing this tulip a while longer. I suspect the Dim one has a similar motivation. Oh and there's being bored tulipless doing this tulip and looking for some entertainment

housepricecrash. what

nice!

Prawny, I know you lurv Doom, however don't it make you sick after a while?
Audience, am I right or what? C'mon!

Well the US Armageddon Survivalists start to actually want the doomsday to come round, just so they can see all the nasty people who laughed at them stockpiling cans of beans, all starving to death. There's nothign as satisfying as being RIGHT!

Meanwhile, back on the board, it's best not to take what people say here too seriously. If Doom is really around the corner for the UK economy, having a few quid in the bank and a few BTL houses is not going to save anyone.

Bob, you've posted 4 or 5 polls in the last couple of days, none of which has had an Andyw option. Because of this, I refuse to vote in them.

Please resolve this situation with your next poll.

Have you stopped reading the newspapers, especially the tabloids like The Times and the Telegraph, Daily Mail is the worst culprit due to the daily Doom and Gloom articles ... Britain is being talked into a BAD recession ...

1. The Telegraph isn't a tabloid.
2. Although I would never pay money for the Mail, I can't believe it's more doom-laden than the Telegraph which is awfully depressing at present.
3. Papers never report any good news.
4. The poll option I need is "I only read papers I get free in the hotel or find on a train"

I no longer see the need for papers or even news related websites.

Everything I need to know in order to make informed decisions about my life is posted here. Usually with the important bits highlighted so that I don't have to read the whole thing.

I especially like it when someone adds an opinion for me to take in italics. It's most helpful as it saves me the bother of thinking about what I've just skimmed.

Keep up the good work.
