Lexusgs430: Credit is how the banks create money! from thin air |
Re: Living In The Uk/life As A UK Immigrant by marylandcakes: 11:31pm On Jun 17, 2018 |
Aphrodite007: You get a credit card to build your credit records if your name is not already in the credit system. Getting a credit card when you have adverse credit record is asking for trouble and it actually worsens your credit score. So don’t advise hubby to apply for any kind of credit just yet. 1 Like |

DaveChapelle: From thin air? No o Oga............. Their consumers creates the thin air......... |

Lexusgs430: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cKmBYXb_9-Y If you understand the concept of saving deposits and lending, it's quite straightforward to grasp. I can't find the exact video, but if you really want to find it, you can do a google search 1 Like 1 Share |

Actually, it's even easy... You borrow me 100pounds and you ask for interest of 5 pounds, hasn't that 5 pounds been created out of thin air? We only had 100pounds physically, but because of our philosophical agreement, you write down 5 pounds on paper, which never physically existed. Do that to 50 people and you have generated 250pounds virtual money out of 5,000 pounds, when you write it down, you legalise it and it becomes more money which you can borrow other people in a vicious cycle from just being a custodian to keep the money in the first place 1 Like |

DaveChapelle: My assertion was literally tongue n cheek...... We all know how they make money... Majority, comes from a collection from billion points on a regular and consistent basis.... |
Re: Living In The Uk/life As A UK Immigrant by DaveChapelle: 10:17am On Jun 18, 2018 |
Lexusgs430: Alright |
Re: Living In The Uk/life As A UK Immigrant by wonlasewonimi: 10:38am On Jun 18, 2018 |
DaveChapelle: If its that easy everyone will be doing it mate. If a bank lend you 100, that somebody else's money they are giving out which they are already paying interest for. |
Re: Living In The Uk/life As A UK Immigrant by Lexusgs430: 10:48am On Jun 18, 2018 |
wonlasewonimi: How much interest are they paying out vs interest received = |
Re: Living In The Uk/life As A UK Immigrant by wonlasewonimi: 10:50am On Jun 18, 2018 |
Lexusgs430: If you are running a business, do you not aim for profit? |
Re: Living In The Uk/life As A UK Immigrant by DaveChapelle: 10:51am On Jun 18, 2018 |
wonlasewonimi: Loan sharks do... So yes other people do it And some dodgy finance services with dodgy interest rates... |
Re: Living In The Uk/life As A UK Immigrant by wonlasewonimi: 11:01am On Jun 18, 2018 |
DaveChapelle: Yes loan sharks do... That's why they maim the borrowers if they default. You just try and lend someone money without interest and see if its very straightforward to get it back. The cost of this risk is the interest the bank is charging. |
Re: Living In The Uk/life As A UK Immigrant by Lexusgs430: 11:43am On Jun 18, 2018 |
wonlasewonimi: I would..... But as a 3rd party, I minimise myself to exposure and profiteering...... |
Re: Living In The Uk/life As A UK Immigrant by wonlasewonimi: 11:50am On Jun 18, 2018 |
Lexusgs430: The point was to prove banks don't make money out of thin air like Mr Chappel mentioned. The best way is to live within your means, but the banks too wants to declare profits in order to give returns to shareholders. |
Re: Living In The Uk/life As A UK Immigrant by Lexusgs430: 12:08pm On Jun 18, 2018 |
wonlasewonimi: So we go back full circle...... What you don't have, you don't spend (apart from appreciating beneficial debts).... |

marylandcakes: Thanks dear, I understand. |
Re: Living In The Uk/life As A UK Immigrant by Folich: 8:57am On Jun 20, 2018 |
UK is no doubt a great place to spend some time in order to create memories of your own. Most of the travellers tell me that the rooms of the hotels of the UK are very small so that you and your luggage can only find some place in them. Is it true folks? |
Re: Living In The Uk/life As A UK Immigrant by wonlasewonimi: 9:32am On Jun 20, 2018 |
Folich: Have you tried Dorchester hotel? The rooms are slightly bigger. |
Re: Living In The Uk/life As A UK Immigrant by Rubyventures: 2:25pm On Jun 20, 2018 |
wonlasewonimi: LOL Dorchester? Yes, he might even bump into the queen in the lift. |

Okuhoc:To the glory of God, I got my passport today with 3 years tier 2 visa. I took the IELTS for ukvi, passed. Did my biometrics at Ikeja on June 8, using walk in and priority. Got my passport today, decision was made June 18 that's 7 working days. Thank God my priority payment wasn't in vain but Ikeja show me pepper for walk in, walk in turned to stand out, they didn't attend to us until after all those on appointment had been attended to. Well all is well that ends well, decision was made on the day I would have had my appointment if I didn't use walk in. Those UK people have chopped my money plenty, I must retaliate when I land UK, not coming there to count bridge. Thanks to all that contributed to my matter. 10 Likes |

wonlasewonimi: You are not nice ....... |
Re: Living In The Uk/life As A UK Immigrant by fatima04: 7:06pm On Jun 20, 2018 |
Okuhoc: Congratulations and welcome to the land of milk and honey |
Re: Living In The Uk/life As A UK Immigrant by fatima04: 7:08pm On Jun 20, 2018 |
Folich: Really can't say, d only one I have stayed was not so small but I believe depends on how much you pay and d kind of size (single or double bed) will be stated whilst booking |
Re: Living In The Uk/life As A UK Immigrant by fatima04: 7:09pm On Jun 20, 2018 |
wonlasewonimi: Lol @slightly bigger, u r truly not nice |
Re: Living In The Uk/life As A UK Immigrant by marylandcakes: 7:26pm On Jun 20, 2018 |
wonlasewonimi: I’ve just imagined you typing this with a straight face. Lol thinking (nor be big room him they look for abi?) |

Okuhoc:Congratulations!!! That’s a great milestone you just achieved, all the best |

marylandcakes: fatima04: Lexusgs430: Rubyventures: Somebody was told all the hotels in the UK have small rooms that cannot fit their luggage, what is bad in recommending the one with bigger rooms that would definitely fit like these ones https://www.dorchestercollection.com/en/london/the-dorchester/rooms-suites/ |

Re: Living In The Uk/life As A UK Immigrant by Rubyventures: 10:06am On Jun 21, 2018 |
wonlasewonimi: Nothing wrong, you recommended a bigger hotel room alright. The only mistake you made is not asking him what his budget was. |
