Correct LeeGlo - many members here have learned that to their cost but still people come along who know better.
One of the great frustrations of CBF (and forums in general) is that it doesn't matter how much previous experience people have available to draw on (13,000 members here for example) - there are always those who don't post questions to get answers, they post questions to find people who agree with them.
Investing in a currency on the slide significantly that in relatively recent times slid on through to 2,500,000 to the £ (before a cosmetic makeover removed the zeros). There is no reason why it can't end up there again if things turn nasty.
For those who are interested in non-supporting replies, I think that would make my example £100,000 worth 11p. Those who choose to ignore just bury your head in the sand (or should I say continue to) that is your choice and only you can decide - but once it hits 5, 10 isn't far away, then 150/£ then 5,000/£, 100,000/£ then 2,500,000/£ - hyperinflation is a steep slope that gets much steeper more quickly as time moves on.
But then again, what do I and several thousand other people who have been there and done it have to offer people with a lump of money who post all the findings they have discovered about lovely interest rates.
