  • Yes, you are correct, he is very quick to criticise and mock others for their financial planning, but he never comes up with any feasible alternatives.

    Yes, he is so so so correct, he is so bang on the nail it is unreal, it is just so amazing that someone else found fault with what he posts, so he just must be a bad bad bad person who writes and posts horrible and ghastly things that "WE" do not like. I mean it does not matter to me if people say the property market will fall or rise or FALL, fact is I am going to become a Billionaire, and who knows a Trillionaire even, and you are all jealous.

    As I said to my lingerie model wife last night after our weekly Olympic triathlon event that I won of course, that those horrible posters on MSE who are varied in opinion "like me" really annoy me with their Bearish posts. But she just told me to calm down and forget them as we began our usual three hour love making session where I used techniques taught to me by the far east Tantric masters, of course I blew her mind yet again, Phew! you know me :-)

    So we woke up, and again my lovely wife thanked, NO! praised me for yet another wonderful night of love making as I was doing my 750 press ups, it would have been my usual 1000, but I sprained my wrist 2 days earlier saving a puppy from a burning building.

    So another day where I log onto MSE where I have so many friends, and the incredible amount of people I have saved from those evil people posting who for example "Don't give their investment plans away", can you imagine it!

    Oh!! Nearly forgot, I am going to take up quantum physics today, should be fully qualified by summer if I cut my MSE time down to 7 hours a day and slow up on my Spanish and mandarin which I hope to be fully fluent in 5 days.

    Oh dear. Another Foxy meltdown.
    It really went downhill with him the day his missus chucked him out of the house. Such bitterness, such hate....poor chap. :(

    The one thing that I would say is that my current weight is actually 74kg.

    I'm envious chuck.
    I wish I was 74Kg, actually even 80Kg would be great.
    I think I should go make up a plan and stick to it.

    P.S. Sorry for being off topic from the thread title, but it seems we have digressed from that anyway

    I've lost 18lbs since I started my health kick in Feb. The only plan you need is "Eat less, move more" :)

    The only thing stopping you, is you! I seriously mean that.

    I'm not a particularly good runner, I'm only an OK cyclist, but my swimming is embarrassingly poor, I can only do the front crawl, and I can't keep up with the best swimmers in the pool when they are doing the breaststroke. But that doesn't matter, what matters is that you could improve your fitness if you wanted to. I'll never win any medals, but the important thing is that I like doing it (it does get quite addictive), even at my lower ability it gives me personal challenges to chase and achieve. But best of all it improves my health, and hopefully my longevity. Oh and I almost forgot my dog loves running with me (pity about the swimming and (road) cycling though (although we do a fair bit of off road cycling with him too in the warmed weather).

    My downfall is wine, I'm better than I was, but still plenty room for improvement.

    Oh!! Nearly forgot

    You did forget Foxy, this is the part that you didn't respond to:
    Go on, embarrass yourself even more, why don't you highlight what lies that you think that I have told, I would of course be very happy to substantiate anything, we could even make the 'loser' pay something to charity. What do you think, don't be shy in coming back, after your(totally uncalled for, you remind me of my BIL, do you have some serious issues?) outburst everyone here will be expecting you come back and respond, you aren't going to disappoint them are you?

    Although I must admit that you did manage to embarrass yourself further, that was almost a given though.

    Do you know what the really sad aspect of your post is Foxy? It is that I just live a totally normal and unspectacular life, yet your life must be so empty and sad, that to you my life seems so unbelievable, that you think that I must be lying. Now that is very sad, if you weren't such a (Text removed by MSE Forum Team) , I would pity you.

    Heh, that was what struck me as well. It's spectacularly tragic.

    That is really what stood out to me too. I have never claimed to be good at running (I'm not), swimming (I'm embarrassingly pathetic) or cycling (I'd like to think that I'm ok, but any decent club cyclist could easily better me). I just enjoy the personal challenge of trying to improve my (albeit not that good) performances/times and try and keep myself fit.

    Ok, it's excuses I know but at the moment my exercise is limited as I need a knee op and my time is taken up with small kids as well.

    I do need to eat less and more nutritionally, so will start there and I will start tonight with a light exercising regime, focussing on building up my muscles around my knee to help the op go smoothly

    After the op of course, I'll be upping my exercise gradually

    P.S. I did dig out my bike and overhaul it on Sunday with a short ride, so I have started lol
