Ronald Reagan said the most frightening words in the English Language are;
'I'm from the Government and I am here to help' :eek:
According to Shelter Osborne's 'Help to Buy' has increased the average house price by over £8k
So what words scare you the most?

The words that would have/have frightened me most are not about investments or money ..The word "dilemma" comes from Greek where "di" means two and "lemma" means premise. Refers usually to difficult choice between two undesirable options.
Often people seem to use this word mistakenly where "quandary" would fit better.0
