    I earn 9k a year but I have 49k in debt. Should I declare bankruptcy because I don't think I can pay off the debt. Or rather, I don't want to.

    Thanks

    I'm looking for a car that's fast (0-60mph in less than 5 seconds) but it MUST MUST MUST have good MPG (at least 60 MPG)

    Tell me what I should get


    It's obvious - the Toyota Yaris, without the optional rear brakes, hence less drag.


    Sigh, can the mods not just ban this muppet, along with his alter ego kmb500 ? We all know they're yet more reincarnations of our dear friend DM :mad:

    Reminds me of a comedian I saw on stage many years ago. He said "There's not many comedians who can command a 4-figure fee these days. £23.75, that's what I'm getting paid for tonight" :D

    Reminds me of a Bob Monkhouse classic ... "When I was young, people laughed at me when I said I wanted to be a comedian. Well, they're not laughing now ..........." :)
