    Erm. That just says rich people have more debt as a percentage of their take home pay.

    The rich on average (take home) more than the poor. Simples.

    I would explain it to you, but you won't thank me for it.

    If only house prices were rapidly rising.

    Then we would all be wealthier.

    Oh, hang on, that's not right is it?

    And someone has actually signed up as rewired3 to thank the bulls :rotfl:

    They criticise rewired for not posting, just thanking, and then make their own :D

    Sadness on a whole new level!

    This is what I mean by sad! Pure playground stuff this!

    I thought I was speaking to high flying career people in the know about the economy. But actually, some of them are busy inventing little ghost thankers!!!
