Money Week publication has predicted The End of Britain – by financial & economic catastrophe

[Ashberto]

and quite soon. The 07/08 crash was just a prelude, they say, to the real thing. We have trillions of unpayable debt which no government can do anything about. We are on the brink of a Weimar Republic situation, facing rising interest rates & chronic inflation. They predict the seizure of personal savings by the government as the only possible source of money they have available to them. as well as riots, disorder, starvation, collapse and all that stuff.

Personally, I have actually been fearing something like this all along, but hoped it was just me being gloomy. Is there any reason to think that we aren’t doomed?

Hope this helps. :thumbup:

always have, isn't it? But then where would the fun be in that?

I took some comfort from that as a sort of best-case scenario.

My salary goes directly to the Exchequer, less a small allowance, which Mrs C takes care of quite comfortably, thank you.

You'll all be alright in the event of the financial apocalypse though, they'll build a wall around the M25.

I shall lead an army of the shires and lay siege from my new forward operational base, a retail park just outside Hemel Hempstead.

I can't see any future remaining here.
I don't want to sound like a c**t but really I will never make any sort of reasonable life here.

Canada has just agreed a huge deal with Europe which will only make things better there.

I don't have aspirations or delusions of wanting to be some high flyer.

I will no doubt encounter plenty of the same bull**** that we get here. And no doubt some new types of bull**** I have not discovered before.

However I think I can have overall a better quality of life. Just some initial research shows I can at least rent a reasonably sized modern place with out having to earn a load.

I had considered moving to other parts of the UK, But I want a fresh start. In a way this move will force me to make a change. It's hard to change my career here in the UK. However the move may force this. So who knows what I will end up doing. I could be doing something more manual. Or installing cable in homes who knows.

I will of course give my rich uncle a call to see if he has any contacts as he worked for the Government for many years and is supremely loaded. He's helped find jobs for other family members.

Then I have a cousin who designs supermakrets for a living. I'll drop him a line too.

I may very well come back to the UK. But it would have to be a different situation to my current one.
