Me and friends where discussing several years before the crash when it would happen also several small businesses I dealt with where discussing what they where putting away ready for the crash so I seriously doubt the government and there advisers didn't know! Gordon brown had his chance to be a...

I genuinely didn't know they deregulated the banks twice! I was referring the first time they where in! Although considering the global crash was being predicted for a few years before it happened why did they keep borrowing more and more when being solvent would have limited it's impact and...

I have found Dimmable leds are a pain and went back to a straight switch lol

I think the problem is that because anybody can now go to university and get a degree a degree now holds less value but a large number think that a degree automatically increases there value! I worked alongside a lad who worked whilst at uni and demanded a pay rise on completion and couldn't...

I think your trying to argue a different point I pointed out that in my experience having needs met is no longer enough for many people! although personally if I was homeless or suffering discomfort it would most definitely drive me but the likelihood of me homeless or in discomfort is also limited!

To be fair my experience has been the opposite as soon as most people feel safe they become less productive and self destructive I've also noticed it's almost always driven by jealousy of people who have more I wonder if we've hit a point where social media has driven expectation to the point...

Wood chip powered lol wind is to inconsistent and water would be very limiting on site selection

Personally it would allow me to chase perfection on many varied rolls although I know for me the achievement of perfection would be the end in itself and then I would move into something else! Although I'd probably build a sawmill from the ground up first!

The union's declared war with there strikes and seeing the deposition between the management and union bosses with management pointing out that the union's wage demands would take the mine from a profit of 10k a month to a loss of 25k a month and the investors wouldn't stand the loss with no...

Or more worrying perhaps they don't care as long as they've had money first

Unfortunately labours constant support of appeasement towards the union's gave the union's affective control and a belief that they would always get there own way! It's the workers I feel sorry for as I believe that if the union's hadn't gone to political war using its members as cannon fodder...

They where the problem unions had pushed the costs beyond what they could produce and refused any attempts to modernize them so they didn't hemorrhage money you blame Thatcher but she was dealing with the problem she had been left with labours attack on business with there extortionate tax...

As labour had bankrupted the country who was going to keep footing the bill?

That view is quite frankly laughable people who are set to inherit generally do so because of the hard work and self sacrifice of there parents if you remove the rewards of hard work and self sacrifice then there becomes no reason for it so most if not all small businesses will get rid of all...

My parents both took on an evening bar job on top of there normal job with all proceeds going into a savings account specifically for there deposit it was common amongst there friends and I suspect probably common in general! I wonder how many who say they can't save for a deposit are currently...

Stop letting other people set the limit for your earning potential and start your own business! Or go back to university and get a degree that leads to a job paying 150k a year! There are generally 2 reasons why some get more than others and it comes down to hard work and talent hard work being...

So your either deliberately or accidentally missing my point what's stopping anybody from upping there earning potential from 35k to 150k? And the reason I don't do it is because I've done 80 hour weeks and all nighters before and have settled for the remuneration/effort comprise that I'm happy with

Why can't everyone else replicate that success?
