I imagine in few months time a lot of art, jewellery and antiques from the era where failed painter could influence masses will be popping up on ebay or other sites (and until then people were absolutely sure their grandpa didn't have anything hidden in the basement and there is nothing to return).

Let's wait and see shall we? Southern states will do a Greece, everyone here knows it.Originally posted by OwlHoot View PostGermany literally can't afford to have a recession, as they will be bailing out Italy, Spain, Greece, and other EU countries when these have their recessions, and they won't have any help from the UK!
Household debt amongst UK citizens is far greater than that amongst German citizens. Turns out the British love to spend their income on tat from China. Let us hope the lesson from all of this results in manufacturing investment in the UK, it is badly needed.
List of countries by household debt
household debt, loans and debt securities as % of GDP
Germany 53.59
UK 87.19
- UK citizens borrowed more from the future than most, which means there's further to fall come the correction.
