Toxic Investments

[Sysman]

They've been saying that since after 2008.

FTSE has gone up about 35%, house prices by at least 20% and bonds have gone through the roof.


Same thing with Money Week. Do the opposite of whatever they say and make a fortune.

But the pound has dropped by nearly 40% since 2007 against my currency.

Moneyweek give out tips and then the ones they get right they use to show how clever they are.

They fail to mention the 99% of "tips" and advice which would have actually resulted in you becoming bankrupt.

Last year you could have made gains of 66%, 93%, 43%, 74%, and 84% in a very short space of time from tips found in MoneyWeek.

If we are serious about living within our means then the govt. must let things rip. That will cause pain but its the only way forward.
Do they have the courage is the big question.

I'd argue that we currently pay lip service to living within our means, but lack the intestinal fortitude to do anything meaningful about it. There's been bugger all courage displayed so far, but surely there has to be a tipping point where meaningful action can't be put off any longer.

The very same people who got us into
this mess... are using the very same
toxic policies to try and get us out!

The Gordon plan.

It needs to, but will it?

The only reason it has not so far is the artificial stimulus given to the economy in the last 2 years i.e. printing money and 0% interest rates.

Absolutely right about property - that needs to fall minimum 20%-30% to correct.
