Para Handy Posted February 24, 2009 Report Share Posted February 24, 2009 I have an How about calling it personal banking. Your very own bank. It’s called a biscuit tin under the bed or you can take pot luck and try sharing just bury it in your front garden and then you and other friends can have your own hedge funds. And then you can go to the nearest lotto shop and if you call the right numbers then you have earned your bonus. If not and some body digs up your hedge fund and makes of with it then you will have to apologise to the wife who has lost her shares through no fault of her own. Then along comes the benefits system, the equivalent of Mr Brown and Mr Darling and re inflates your biscuit tin to the tune of a few billion pounds, but you wont lend it to any one else just to claim your own bonus to pay the wife and your self the only major share holdersThat sums up the UK banking in a nut shell Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can’t help thinking that I have covered this point as Mr Brown (self richeous) and Mr Darling (pompus) ane there both gits. Was a fore gone conclusion . And there is no such thing as a mate in the banking world It’s just that you have to look like a mate before you can stab them in the back Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Para Handy Posted February 28, 2009 Report Share Posted February 28, 2009 All the fuss about Fred Goodwin and his pension . While mister brown has had yet anther cunning plan for the banks. Where is Captain Blackadder when they need some one to point out the flaw in it. Just like our own council he thinks he can solve every problem by just throwing loads of money around. Yet not a word about his own very inflated pension for life, after his cock-up for the past 12 years Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
