when i went bankrupt in 89,i couldnt just say to the goverment,please bail me out,ive fucked up,

i had to lose everything and start again...these banks have took the cream and now want handouts to cover their mess...and i bet the fat cats still get to lick the cream of next april at the end of the financial year..

someone ,somewheree is making a lot of money out of this...and its not me

..

the fact they even said they would loan the money sent share prices up..!

Money goes to money...bodies go to body hell.



Tits and Explosions

I don't understand why it is called "economy" when it doesn't work normally without intervention of state and everywhere it is so!
(interesting but depression of 30' didn't influence so much states with the most savage systems as Germany and SU; Italy was not suffering so much of it also...) . It looks like real ecomonicy stopped somewhere at the beginning of 20'century...

let's bail out the homeless people!

Expect tax rises next year to pay for the debt. We'l al have a lot less spending power next year, even if interest rates do fall.

BWW = The new WI

I was declared bankrupt at the same time as you JamesD and I lost everything too. My house, the pubs, the lot. That's why I went to London because the story was that you could make a lot of money there, which turned out not to be true.

Took me a good few years before I got back on my feet. No credit, nothing.

Things are getting pretty tough for me again now, too.

Mist.

me to mist.things are not to great,more of my mates have lost their jobs in the last few weeks,,everything is grinding to an half up here......look like its going to another winter of discontent and misery.
keep smiling whilst it free....

..

I'm being hit with fairly substantial bank charges every month. I'm even in arrears with my rent for my house in Edinburgh, even though they know that I get £420 paid in every month. My rent is £260 a month, which I always pay.

It's the banking system itself. It takes a minimum of 4 days for the letting agency to collect the rent and deposit it in my account. It takes another 4 days for it to be registered into my account. I'm with HBOS btw who don't count weeekends as banking days, so that's 10 days altogether.

Easter weekend is a killer. Friday is a bank holiday, then you have the weekend, then Monday is a bank holiday.

That's two weeks before your money is paid into your account.

Whilst all this is happening, the bank's making interest on my money and I get phonecalls from Edinburgh council to me here in France telling me that I'm in arrears and they need a certain amount to clear them.

You can't do it if you don't have the money as I keep explainining to the dopeys.

Today is the 10th October. The letting agency received the rent on the 1st October. I'll be lucky if the money has been transferred on Monday 13th. Almost two weeks again.

Bankers? Replace the first letter with a W.

Mist.

this country is up the swanny without a paddle....


but at least we can keep housing immigrants with 7 kids and no husband in million pound housing,and give her £2000 a month to live on....and then we could at least pay for an housekeeper for the poor woman,because the house is to big for her to keep clean on her own.....................


and then let our own old people.some of them who served in the war at home and away freeze to death because we have allowed the fuel companies to raise prices to bolster their profits,even tho the world prices are actually falling....

at this moment in time,im not proud to be british.

..

The World is up the swanny IMHO James...

thevisitor tightens his belt...no blu-ray player/recorder/drive for me.

It's the same in Ireland just makes me wonder how the hell did it get to this?
Now with the Governments guarantee will the Banks exploit this or will there be watchdogs to keep things in tow?
It really is sad how they have no help for the average joe or small business but they can bail the fat cats out,i wonder will any of them either in the Banks or Goverment take a pay cut or tighten their belts like they're telling us to do,i think not.

Case Report
"Mr. GB" was a 33-year-old man who had been diagnosed with UC 6 years ago. He was a street-sweeper with 8 years of education, and he had a stable conjugal relationship.

At the onset of UC, he was referred to a gastroenterologist who told him he had a severe disease that could possibly lead to death, prescribed 5-aminosalycilate and steroid treatment, and "commanded" a series of behavioral rules, including rigid diet (only very few foods were allowed), no alcohol or cigarette consumption, complete abstinence from sexual activity, and avoidance of physical activity (including exercise and sports) and psychological stress. Because of the fear induced by this physician, in the following years, he changed his lifestyle dramatically and became socially isolated. His life was totally restricted to his home. He went out only for work, and, when he had to go somewhere, he always needed his girlfriend with him. UC activity was always at a mild-to-moderate level, and the patient began to develop a deeper fear of leaving home and compulsive rituals of defecation-checking. He woke up at 3 A.M., 2 hours before going to work, and strained to evacuate 2 to 3 times in order to be calm enough to leave home, thus avoiding the fear of fecal incontinence he experienced when on the street with no bathroom at his disposal. He could go only to places he was familiar with, and he had to know where the bathroom was located.

Because of the persistence of abdominal pain and problems with bowel habits, he was referred to another gastroenterologist, who ordered a colonoscopy (which revealed, however, no sign of inflammation) and who treated him with mesalazine 3.2 g daily, with no substantial benefit. Because of his persistent depressive mood, the patient was referred to a psychiatrist, who treated him with paroxetine 20 mg daily for 3 months, again without any beneficial effects on the intestinal or psychological symptoms. At a later psychological consultation, he scored in the higher range for anxiety, depression, alexithymia, poor emotional control, dependency traits, and vulnerability to affect-dysregulation under stress to a battery of screening and personality scales, and he was diagnosed with BOS.

The three healthcare professionals involved in the case (gastroenterologist, psychiatrist, and psychologist) decided to stop psychiatric therapy, and the patient was treated for 16 sessions with cognitive-behavior therapy (CBT). His CBT focused on three major areas of functioning: First, the fear of leaving home was addressed with techniques of gradual exposure and response prevention. Second, the alexithymia component was explored with the patient. Because of the difficulty in the cognitive processing of feelings, he experienced high emotional arousal when exposed to the perceived danger (leaving home) that led to automatic thoughts ("I do not feel anxiety if I completely evacuate before leaving."), compulsive symptoms (multiple defecation), and misinterpretation of signs of distress as acute UC symptoms. Third, the hopelessness/helplessness attitude ("I am not able to cope with the fear of urgent defecation.") was addressed with cognitive restructuring aimed at improving autonomy and ego strength.

At the end of psychotherapy, the patient was able to leave home with no OCD-like symptoms, had no IBS-like symptoms, and scored in the normal range on anxiety and depression scales. After 3 years, the patient reported no BOS symptoms and had had two flare-ups of UC that were managed appropriately, with no further psychological problems.

This is better. This website is interactive in all respects and uses a kind of 'relevance' graphic-chart that is quite "easy-peazy" to use after you look about it for a while..... Just enter the details you want into the search and watch it go!!!
Very cool, although coldly illustrative of the condition of the global market and what moves them.
