Wouldn't it be loverly

We had a gas and oil industry in this country what did we do with all the profits ? Norway in the same situation built a Sovereign Wealth Fund and this has grown so big they are worried about it.(£200,000.00 for every man, woman and child in the country.) Different nations , different priorities, if we had done this think about how much the politicians could have pocketed !

Re: Wouldn't it be loverly

You make such a good point Curmudgeon. Watching Question Time last night nearly brought about a shout-at-the-telly incident - I wanted to yell 'stop blaming the people of Britain for your own mismanagement. All the problems we have is down to you lot, not us - you are paid to make these decisions and you got it wrong, again'.

I just goes to show that having degrees and the right education and background is no guarantee of ability.

Cor. Makes you think doesn't it, and all from stocks and shares. I have been looking in to trading in such markets as there does appear to be a ton of money to be made. On the flip side though you can lose just as much if not more so I ain't rushing things at all. Thought provoking as the trading markets move enormous sums of money each and every day.
