    Don't be so humble Crashy, you should also take the credit for predicting that Sunday would follow Saturday, which was probably on a par with predicting that interest rates would rise as rapidly as they did.




    Really? A fair few on here (including you?) thought they would remain low "forever" :rotfl: The rate rises have not even started yet, as one of my other long standing predictions comes to pass, the breakup of the EZ, rate rises will get even more scary (depending on your debt load of course)

    Rates only had one way to go, and who cares about Trump?

    What predictions have you made that have got you one step further from getting out of that bedsit


    Half the world cares about Trump one way or another, the other half don`t have TV or the internet :rotfl:
  • Oh, I predicted Trump, Brexit and interest rate rises, so there are three to start with :rotfl:

    Brexit coin toss yes or no vote.
    Trump coin toss Hilary or Donald
    interest rates spectacularly wrong you said they would be going up and they decreased by .25%
    when they were already at a historically low rate ��

    I think you might be Mystic Meg, what's my prize?

    I`m talking about GLOBAL interest rates, what the BOE does now is pretty much irrelevant in the bigger scheme of things (they will just follow the US at a delayed pace anyway) Donald and Brexit were laughed at in the media, on here and everywhere else before the actual votes, it was in no way a "coin toss" by any stretch of the imagination :rotfl:

    And yet I still have several homes and you have Corbyn and your predictions, good luck with that

    How much have prices got to drop before your tactics enrich you, 70% plus?

    Even taking Crashy's laughably exaggerated successful predictions at face value there is of course his "raison d'etre" predictions:

    In 2014 he predicted a house price crash - FAIL
    In 2015 he predicted a house price crash - FAIL
    In 2016 he predicted a house price crash - FAIL
    In 2017 he predicted a house price crash - FAIL
    In 2018 he predicted a house price crash - FAIL

    So I make that a rather poor success rate overall and perhaps he'd have been better to stick to the coin toss. ;)

    You also have hours of posting every day on a sub sub forum nobody reads and on a Brexit thread that isn`t going to make any difference to Brexit, good luck with that.
