Selling my supercharged vxr8 to offset a good chunk of mortgage on the property
On a brighter side, I am going to keep that money in fixed deposit for a year and then offset it against mortgage
I am Brad. I do more than the needful and drive the market rates up by not bobbing my head.Comment

Hopefully you (and your missus's) froglike abilities will see it through to a wonderful week away from tulipe and enjoy the diving.
Exotic cocktails, massages and lobster on the floaty thing?

Showing off (formally contractor lifestyle)
Ok I'll show off. I just qualified for the age group duathlon world championships in Canada, using an extremely expensive time trial bike that my no doubt less well off competitors could not afford. And even if they managed to borrow such a beautiful machine and beat me in the race, they would still probably not afford the flight to Canada and the cost of the shiny new gb kit, so their place would have to roll down to yours truly!"You can't climb the ladder of success, with your hands in the pockets"
