    Every pound less borrowed (to buy a house) is more than two pounds less to repay and more than three pounds less to earn, over the course of a typical mortgage.

    I just knew that George Dubya would manage to pull defeat out of this.
    No reliance should be placed on the above! Absolutely none, do you hear?

    RIP to my investments :cry:
  • There'll be some seriously large brown envelopes being passed around right now.

    As it stands with no voting time left:

    Yea = 206

    Nay - 227

    NV = 1



    Democratic = 141/94
    Republican = 65/133


    After a short time, the Chair has agreed that the motion would be reconsidered. Then the motion was withdrawn.

    Associated press reporting motion defeated! DOW Jones down 644 (200 in last 40 seconds).

    I think now might be a good time to buy shares - and sell tomorrow.
