      What kind of 'gold plated' scheme was this which allowed you to cash in so much early ? Does it exist or are you imagining it ? So just becuase you invested your money into property, the rest who have followed the traditional pension scheme route are mugs ? Also, the state pension could be a ppyramid scheme but a personal plan never is, unless you have proof otherwise.

        It would take a lot for the country to start taxing property portfolios. However, with most MP's owning a multitude of properties, I don't see that happening for some time now

          Well, I'm happy as ever to prove what I said, fa. What's in it for me, though? How's about if I'm able to prove what I said, you post a picture of yourself holding a message stating "I'm sorry, Gentile, you were right", to make up for being the latest in a short but notable line of CUK doubters?

              Is you implying that I don't have a sense of humour? Not so: Q. - What's orange and sounds like a parrot? A. - A carrot.



              What are your plans for retirement, dodgy?

                You could already do that if you just moved to Zimbabwe or somewhere with hyperinflation. In fact, just stay put and the EU will probably be in that position soon enough.

                    I haven't played the lottery in about fifteen years, since the first few weeks that it started. It still sounds a safer bet than handing your money to a pension scheme, though!
