I agree I have avoided !!!!!!'s goading today.
First go wasn't very successful...
Realy- I didn't post that so you could try to claim the moral high ground.
EVERYONE is guilty of pushing things off topic.
EVERYONE has been avoiding questions put to them.
To be fair to !!!!!!?, trying to keep up with poorly worded questions, confusing arguments and triple negatives from 3 or 4 people at the same time is no mean feat. He could just call it a day.
Then what? Boring forum.
EVERYONE has been guilty of offence, even if sometimes cleverly worded so you can pretend none was meant.
Realy - I'm afraid your self-congratulatory comment is what makes people think you are DD...
EVERYONE - grow up.0 -

I think Realy was created to rile mewbie, from what I remember. Anyway, he's joined DD on my ignore list now (though I reserve the right to peek and reply sometimes)

wow - a breakthrough. headline news!!
!!!!!! is wrong - Realy is going on Ignore because he has proved that !!!!!! is talking rubbish again0 -
Dollar LIBOR followed base rates quite closely until Mar 08
It's called a Eurodollar to start with.
What has the Base Rate, set by the Bank of England got to do with Eurodollar LIBORS ??'In nature, there are neither rewards nor punishments - there are Consequences.'0 -
I have 62 posts. I'm a psychology student plus I work, so I don't get a lot of time to post.
wow - 62 posts equals a psycology student. what an achievement!!!Tell me why you think that everyone that doesn't agree with your viewpoint, must be the same poster using different user names?
because they use the same wording and the style of writing is the same0 -

...and if it wasn't for you damn kids I'd have got away with it too!
(Looks like my fiendish plan of posting on MSE to bring down the world markets and with it the UK housing market so I can get a cheaper house is actually working. I never thought it had a chance......)--
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.0 -

Then again she would know that being a psycology student.'Just think for a moment what a prospect that is.

The Skipton graph which I came up with when StevieJ wasn't happy with the previous BBA one:
http://www.skipton-intermediaries.co.uk/product_details/graph.asp
... covered both UK and US rates and the respective LIBORs so I commented on both.
My original claim was that real world cost of borrowing money started to strongly diverge from the rates that the central banks were setting over a year ago.
I would say that the graph, in the link posted, backs this up.
As I noted, in the case of Sterling it really widened about 17 months ago, for the dollar the start of the widening was about 8 months ago.
I hope that's clarified things for you.--

No just posted to protect !!!!!! from answering a logical question,
Your tone comes across as hardly neutral does it :rolleyes:
I dont care who you think I am I asked a question based on !!!!!! had stated that the current bust was based on cheap easy credit.
I said would it had been any diffferent if the rates had been higher under the same circumstances?
What is so wrong with that!:rolleyes:
Before you do the grow up bit I think you should look at why the thread degenerated to this!!
IT AINT ME.:mad:0 -
