Kosh If you'd like a bit of sympathy. perhaps you would be honest enough to tell us what your house is worth and what outstanding mortgage you have.

Most of you choose to ignore my point about mortgages so you can get on your high horse and prove how righteous you are. In summary, most home owners facing mortgage increases have massive amounts of collateral (profit) locked up in their property. They are actually very fortunate and need to...

A mess you and your ilk have contributed to and authored... by doing nothing except hording wealth and sitting like Smaug on top of your (hard earned) pile of riches. I don't purport to be anything other than a hard-working normal man, but BOY do you come across like a boorish know all...
