    Granted I can see irony / sarcasm when I re-read the post but my first opinion still holds due to your other posts.
    Yeah Einstein, which ones?

      That one for starters. Anyone except a complete idiot would know that Einstein was a (theoretical) physicist not a psychologist focused on intelligence (you would be wanting to name check Sternberg, Gardner or Spearman there really)
      merely at clientco for the entertainment

          Shocking is the level of ignorance in basic statistics regarding the country you live in, assuming it is the UK. The boomers, the largest demographic by far in the UK is pulling out of the workforce. There are less workers in the UK that there was yesterday, a pattern that'll continue for the next 2-3 years.

          CURRENT UK POPULATION — age discrimination


          And none of that is taking into consideration the falling fertility rate...

              It's also the starting point of Contagion!
              Is that the one on the A3?

              I went through that by accident because I wasn't paying attention and had missed the turn off at Milford. Took a while before I realised but did have fun through the tunnel.

                  I'm always keeping an eye out for a Pied-à-terre in Bath. Cash on standby when bottom strikes...

                  Here's a nice 2-bed on the Circus.

                    Seems I was right. 10 seconds later.

                      People needed a house in early 2009 too, but I'm not sure what that has to do with asset prices and leverage. The market's going down, obviously. For now, there are neither buyers nor sellers, so everything is on hold until the lockdown is over and the decline in prices will be proportional to the length of the lockdown. So, yeah, BAU.... for now.
