    Yes. After the kick in the nads I had to take a few days off work.

    not very bright but an indication of how the masses have been taught to think.

    I was talking about House purchase. How many people buy houses without borrowing? The amount of money we save should enable us to take out a decent family home in 4-5 years. I don't believe in long term debt myself, the only debt I usually have is on the credit card, which are paid in full every month. Using free credit, with good financial planning is good thing.

    I thought the future had been cancelled due to non-compliance with health and safety regulations.

    Now I dont bother with these, as the effort and time is not worth. But will keep fingers crossed, that won't harm my chances of obtaining mortgage. I don't like to wait for 4-5 years, and then buying with cash

    Instead of getting a pay day loan just wait until you get paid! GE's stance should be made law.

    Also the names of all those stupid enough to take out a pay day loan should be advertised on local billboards.
