HOUSING INTEREST RATES



I got a chance to re-evaluate my mortgage interest rates again this week. What a gamble it all is? Choosing between different interest rates whether fixed or floating. It became a bit of a game. I even ventured to think about gambling on the share market with money belonging to others. I gained some insight into the cognitive drivers that would propel one to become reckless on the share market with money belonging to others. It is a game with no definite outcomes.
I read up on market trends and reminded myself of the huge numbers of those who applied for a limited number of available jobs at Countdown in Manukau. Now thats a sign of more depressing times coming.

BREAKING NEWS BREAKING NEWS

Couple that with my nephew who just walked in after a long sleep with news that a tsunami may hit New Zealand. He's only 9 years old so of course I'm dismissive. BUT - tsunami's are not uncommon so I decided to tweet the word on Twitter and blow me down - there is one forecast.

Well I shall put this blogging away again and review my emergency procedures. See you after the Tsunami.
