  • It's like Broadmoor, only the crimes are against thrift rather than against people. If the Stockwell Strangler had an opinion on house prices, he'd share it there, not here. There can be no worse place on the internet to visit to discuss money.

    Of course a MONEY SAVING site that is full of people desperate for high house prices is a GREAT place to discuss money :rotfl:

    I believe that the evast majority of the HPC loonybin residents are under the observations of the authorities.

    Indeed the websites promotors and moderators should be held to account for their financial terrorism. Convincing and consigning newbies to rent forever loser status when, 18 years later had they never read the diabolical site they would be almost mortgage free. :mad:

    Totally agree, I found HPC before I bought, I was almost taken in, as their everyone on there agrees houses are about to crash, its very compelling, what you have to remember is they shoot down anyone that even questions that there will be an imminent crash... Anyone that might believe them of people like Crashy all I say is look back on HPC to the earlier posts around 2004 and you will see them saying the same things as they do now, house price crash about to come 40%+ crashes, anyone that questions them have their head in the clouds.

    Thankfully I got talked out of the doom Sayers by friends and family... Make up your own mind, do what is best for you... Anyone that tells you they know what house prices are going to do is a snake oil salesman, do not believe them, houses can go up and go down, in the long run they will have always gone up, remember as long as you can afford your mortgage even if rates rise.

    Nothing profound here - dichthuatmid is just a spammer, copying a paragraph from earlier in the thread (post #3 actually), to "promote" the website in his forum profile.

    Crashtrollery goes back to at least 1996.
