"Katie Price at the Oxford Union: 'No one has an excuse not to try and earn a living'"

"Not since Albert Einstein stood on this spot, perhaps, has there been such a meeting of great minds. On one side of the oak-panelled chamber sat the academic cream of Britain – history-makers in waiting, future captains of industry, and almost certainly a smattering of aspiring politicians. On the other sat Katie Price. But the topless model turned self-made businesswoman may have posed an unspoken question to undergraduates when she followed in the footsteps of prime ministers, world leaders and international notables to address the Oxford Union."

Housing prices due to drop dramatically!!!

House prices decreasing by over 50%. Big-name companies dropping like flies. The FTSE Rapidly declining over a number of years, enduring a series of steep crashes, interspersed with smaller rallies. These are the apocalyptic visions predicted by investment manager and economist David Kauders, who has been uncannily correct to date in his predictions. Kauders who usually only recommends his clients invest in UK and US government bonds, has been warning clients about rapidly rising levels of debt for a great number of years now. For example, In the late nineties he warned that 'with growth in GDP less than growth in lending, the sensible conclusion is that America's boom is artificial.'

Now he has outlined in detail what he thinks will happen next in his book The Greatest Crash. Do you need conveyancing? Visit us for your free quote today! Www.helpfulconveyancing.co.uk

Downturn Abbey FOR SALE!!

"There isn't a grown-up child in the land who hasn't fantasised about living in a castle at one time or another. Yet the reality is the closest most of us come to owning a slice of history is in the form of a Victorian terrace with windows that allow a force-nine gale to whip through the lounge every winter. Thankfully, this may no longer be the case. One of the few advantages of the current economic climate is that the market for castles has stalled, meaning that whether you fancy yourself as a Scottish Laird or modern-day Emma Woodhouse, that dream is now more achievable than ever."
