            Those of us who worked in the City in the late 90s, early 2000s had it good. Didn't like working there anyway but it did fund my first BTLs. They should nuke the place and start again.
            Hard Brexit now!

              Was it Rothschild who said that financiers are more important than politicians?

              With fractional reserve banking the only way forward is ever increasing money supply. Which goes via the city. Destroy that and you will bring the whole country down.

              The only way out is inflation.

                  Which is why the smart money is on owning tangible assets rather than money in a bank.

                  Property (around the world), land, Gold, art, bonds, stocks etc.


                  Money in the bank =

                    Someone told me recently that property did worse than stocks during the depression. But I have not been able to find any evidence to back that up.
