I prefer my old friend, sad day when I let him go. Love my Tenere though
My question is more focused on the UK's position as we are very exposed everywhere you care to look. The real problem lay in the blame being put on " Sub Prime Mortgages " ie the people who took out the loans. It was the people who wrote the loans, and then the ratings Agencies who gave the Bonds which contained these " Triple A " ratings which were then sold on to investors as Gold. But don't worry the tax payers bailed them out. Pension funds have been under massive pressure to go " Green " so have had to come out of what would historically been safe havens for them in times of trouble. Now they have no-where to go but to insure against it ( Liability Driven Investments ) and remember this is not spare money that people are choosing to invest, it's their Pensions. Our Mortgage market has gone from Repayment ( where you pay the Interest and Capital Loan ) to Interest Only ( you are renting but most people don't see it ) and its the same with Car Loans where you rent them with a Guaranteed Future Value at the end so you either give it back or actually buy it. It may be different elsewhere but UK wise normal people don't really own anything anymore they have no assets. It's the same with our Retail sector they are renting their outlets ( Tescos are one of the few who own their stores ) hedge funds have been after them for years so they can put the stores in another vehicle and rent them back to Tescos ) taking all the value out of the company. This is why we have Billionaires now instead of Millionaires ( that money is the wage rises we should have got ) the UK stock market rules are really to blame not the people who take advantage of it. And now it looks like our Pensions are next in line. Is it just the UK that are in this position or are we just in the same shit as everyone else ?. Sorry if this looks like a rant, it's actually great concern.
And wouldn't it have been easier to make a lock washer?…..Or does that have another purpose?……Except that he had lost the lock washer in the middle of the desert….(seems like a good solution to a problem)….
I'm thinkin' somebody popped the circlip off . . . . and lost it. It's definitely "rigged", but it's also kinda ingenious.
