Much the same.Originally posted by DaveB View PostHow much less are you worth this year compared to last? -
I am just a poor boy, though my story's seldom told.
I am worth nothing. Just like last year and the year before that.
That's my story, and I'm sticking to it.How did this happen? Who's to blame? Well certainly there are those more responsible than others, and they will be held accountable, but again truth be told, if you're looking for the guilty, you need only look into a mirror.

worthless or worth less
I am currently worth £70 per day less right now than I was last year. The up side of this situation is that I am worth £70 per day less until December - as I have a 11 month contract. Which is nice.Comment

I like the idea of creating the depreciation thread
Does it mean anything if I say I don't mean anything?
