    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.

    As usual, the pack of hyenas ends up reduced to hurling personal taunts. Not just Realy, chucky and StevieJ jumping in too.

    How sad but how predictable.

    Actually it is good to have a few balancing Hyenas rather than just your pack.

    was it deflation or inflation that you've been changing your view on?

    or was it increasing or lowering rates?

    And you only see insults if they are by some one who does not agree with you.

    If you agree with him he will not say a word, he is the HPC messiah after all.;)

    Being a saver, I'd love for "1979-1982 17%" interest rates. But even I am not selfish enough to really wish it, as it would cripple far too many people (even though I think those who over borrowed should be penalised financially to be taught a lesson).

    For the benefit of the country, I think rates can only go down for now, regardless of inflation.
