    I create money out of thin air. :)
    That is called "Quantitative easing" - the Bank of England does it too:rotfl:
    I'm not sure you should publicise that you are doing it, or Gordon/Alastair will soon be taxing the air that we all need to breathe.

    The blog that I really enjoy isn't about economics, its about foreign affairs. Its by Tim Marshall, the superb foreign affairs editor on Sky, who has a unique ability to get to the heart of complex situations and put them in a way anyone can understand. Occasionally it touches on the economy too.

    Sky's City Blog is pretty good too, though it is shared by its correspondents and some are more insightful than others.
