    I was just watching GMTV and noticed Martin was on there. I've worked for a bank so I already know the things he was talking about. But what a sterling job he has done, explaining everything step by step and made it sound so simple.

    Well done Martin :money: I hope some people took your advice, because credit cards can really cripple people's lives. :mad:

    Actually I thought Martin should have been on GMTV the other day when they were talking about that chap who took his own life due to massive debt. They plugged the motley fool website, but should have promoted this one too!

    Missed him this morning though. I normally watched it, but I am having MASSIVE MASSIVE problems with banks today and have spent all morning trying to sort them out.

    I think you had Lorraine a bit scared though. She looked terrified of you!

    Oh no, gutted I missed this, I seem to miss everything Martin does on TV :rolleyes:

    Martin, is there anyway you can put scheduled TV/radio appearances in the weekly newsletter?
    If you have good thoughts, they'll shine out of your face like sunbeams & you'll always look lovely.

    Is it better to aim for the stars and hit a tree or aim for a tree and land in its branches :think:
