I suppose after thirty years of marriage to my Thai wife I suppose she falls into that category. But maybe me more likely. The only one that Klinged on to me was the one I met 25 years ago and married 18 years ago. She is still Klinging on. i beat both of you being married 39 years. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So UK's got its Issan?... I don't know how you come to the conclusion that the North East has the lowest pensions. My pension is 127 quid less than what you've stated. Must be some **oody rich Geordies in the UK. Not in Manchester I can assure you of that. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

owl sees all Posted September 4, 2018 Share Posted September 4, 2018 The problem in the financial world is that money (as opposed to currency) simply doesn't exist. The countries that are either outside the world's banking system or trying to do trade in gold or other worthy substance are being constantly demonised and on the list for regiem change. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the answer is in the population densities and numbers, perhaps a reflection also of the confidence the population has in their governments' ability to manage their respective economies.
