    So countries default etc...

    What's it actually mean to me or any other guy on the street? I'm personally debt free, I'll probably work till I die but what I do isn't like work anyway.

    I can afford my lifestyle is that likely to change drastically? Should I care? Should I fck off somewhere else?

            China will buy Europe for forty quid and we'll all have to learn Mandarin.

            Greece defaults > Panic ensues > The cost of borrowing for other countries who were just about keeping above water soars > They default too (In the meantime, banks are going under) > It's 2009 all over again except this time Europe's at the centre of it instead of the US.

                'Cos Mervyn will fire up the printing presses again in a vain attempt to keep our massively exposed banks afloat, inflation will become rampant and we'll be plunged into another depression. I plan on buying a house just before this happens, so my mortgage will be inflated away

                Buy gold. And tinned food. And houses.

                  Buying another house no mortgage, gold I might dabble with. Gold plated tinned food?

                    Sounds good. Not as swanky as the solid gold tinned food Dim Prawn eats mind you
