Man, I wish! I go to Ireland pretty often and both the Irish punt and British pound is worth more than the US dollar. That 10k of British pound is worth about $14k US!

Yep vwkess, u are right i am paying off all my depts wont tell u how much cos it is personal. ON sat at 09:00 i am getting 12k so in terms of mr penguin, thats about $104, but realy works out at US 17k think ext. rate is about 1.42. the £12k is paying my debts ppl. most of em ( CR@P ) me in debt huh?. but i doo think tho i can pay my debt with the 12k cos of gaining intrest on quick payments on loans and hp , C.C. etc.

today i spent a little money. I got a nice 2.1 pix usb 7,5 zoom digi camera :-) bought a gas powered bb gun, thought it was not firing plastic pellets so shot my hand F me i am still in pain. used the leathel brass pellets in my garden. I thought bb guns were toys. shot through a pc mah with brass pellet and this was after firing about 30 odd shots from one canister. remember boys i live in U.K. so am very excited about that bb gun. had to get the wife something , a getto blaster, cos i hate her 60's music.

Still have the £10,000 tho US around $14200 to play with wich is nice.

Laterz guys

Chris.

ps. wish i could use the U.S. buy and trade page, some good deals over there.

AGREED! At 42 the house and all three cars are paid for, and I don't owe the credit card companies anything. THAT'S a nice feeling. :)

You could always send the extra cash to me and I'll find a new creative way to "invest" it ;)

Looks like it could be £26K in a week. i am shitting me self.

I have depts of about 12K will be paid off.

Been with this bank of mine for ages, got top rate credit rating , never paid late nor missed a single payment since i started with credit. I got already everything in the house:

32" pure flat wide screen TV with extras
2 Digi 5.1 amps
28" tv for the bed room
hifi seperates
loads of speakers around 17 all together
DVD & dvd's
new sofa chairs 1yr old , new carpets.
2 PC's
wife :-(
good vid
digi vid cam


out of the 15K i spent around £400. on my digi camera and a tape deck.

intrest rates are so low no point in saving 14k left if all goes well, but V. good to borrow.


Many guys work for a living on this forum board. I onluy get benefits.....why cos i am careing for my disabled wife . so all this money is ( 15k ) at the mo £11K to come is frightning and the good thing is we will be better off off paying all our outstanding debts. and paying the loans back.

me i have been sick for 8 months and should claim sickness benefit and maybe my wifes benefit which would double our income. but as things stand, i can't think of anything to use the money for.

Looks like i will pay half the loan off strait away. no penaltis either.

u wish u had money then when u have it u don't know what to bl@@dy do with it.
