Reply to: The "helicopter drop" is here

I thought Helicopter drop was what happened when the engine/transmission/a drive line failed.

You certainly keep going back to the Thistle.

Don't we all?

[Old Greg]

Something tells me the memory of the sophisticated clientele that use those brands shall not stretch that far.

Scoots will be looking for a hovel, once the Thistle Heathrow closes down.

Or contact a couple of NHS Acute Trusts (especially if they're near a hospital, or Excel) to see if they need temp accommodation for additional staff.

Not in the UK

Another brand to boycott after all this is over, along with Sports Direct.

Per se it hasn't but it has tainted the image of central banks with its cocking around with ceilings then suddenly binning them off, leading to markets shunning them to a reasonable extent. The franc is now treated with a degree of wariness compared to it having been a go-to fiat currency.

So are we agreed that not EVERY fiat currency has failed?

Dunno about the Thistle, but: Homeless Travelodge residents turned out on to street

That is beyond horrendous, it's immoral.

As a well known brand, who are hardly new to business, they could have provided at least a week of notice, if not two weeks.

Love the video.

For the sh1t storm coming our way .... and its coming ..... all that can really be advised is try and hold hard assets.

Most people don't realise that EVERY single fiat currency ever made has failed.... every single one.

There is a good possibility that all these supposed 'loans' being made now will never be paid back and will effectively be forgotten about.

This could even bring about a new world order with a global single currency.

Its frightening times and the aftermath of the virus could possibly be worse than the virus itself.

People say that in 2008 we should have just let the bankrupt companies go under. I just pray that in a years time Cummings is not proven right with his economy v people (supposed) message.

You should put that on a t-shirt or a series of motivational posters.

If only I listened to scooty ...

'He's not wrong'


on the back of the t-shirt

[AtW]

You should put that on a hazmat suit or a series of motivational bottle cups.
