    A knockout blow to the Bulls there! :rotfl:

    Hardly a knockout blow when you consider he is saying if he had that much

    It's rather obvious who the 'idiot' is, in fact I suspect there is only one person on this forum that is too dumb to realise.
    curiously, geneer, debtistheft and one other poster always use the same language in their posts.

    i'll leave it up to you guys to work out who the third mortgage free boaster is.

    I love how the bulls get all defensive and start listing all their possessions and alleged wealth. Bears never stoop so low, except when we are provoked as DervProf mentioned already.

    If you say I am in poverty obviously I am going to respond (only an 'idiot' would fail to see that). But somehow I don't think that you do 'love it', you strike me as someone who is very bitter about their financial position.

    We are a combination of all of them. The attractiveness of 'face', the strength of 'BA', the guile of 'The cigar smoking leader whose name escapes me', the humour of 'Murdock' and the anonymity of 'Charlie'.

    I wish I were geneer. He is one of my favourite posters on here. He ties you bulls up in knots with every single one of his posts. Absolute class! :D

    If you are convinced property is such a uniquely terrible investment, what do you think people should invest in instead?

    Selective memory, or old age?

    You were obviously banned when the likes of Macaque and Ad (unprovoked) 'stooped so low' as to claim to have bought homes outright. Or when nearlynew claimed to have a BTL portfolio, the number of homes changing with each post.

    Three pointer. Go Bulls! :j
