I don't have a gripe about anyone having more money than me. Even toffs.

I don't think that the gap between rich and poor is healthy, judging by how angry the resident smack-headed junkie is. But I don't see the correlation between independence and closing that gap in the UK, or Scotland for that matter other than independence will mean that the rich will move to England where their money will not be subjected to Jock tax, thus bringing down the wealth of the Jocks left in the socialist utopia of zero growth Scotland.

Where is people's ambition to be better? It's all gripes and bitterness. Instead of moaning about other people's wealth, go and make your own.

Nah I've been pretty consistent on here (I'd Google quotes if I could be arsed) that my investment in my kids will stop when (if) they are out of University.

I don't plan to get rich enough to leave anything anyway. I want to eventually just have enough to support me maybe giving up full time work, to get some free time to actually enjoy life.

You been cutting your **** with pcp? The link is to a selection of the latest stats from the ONS, it has nothing to do with my opinion or anyone elses opinion. They are stats.

All before I even had my dinner. S-U-P-E-R-B

That whole business with the importance of the UK to the USA was ridiculous. On one hand you've got Obama doing the dirty work of the yes camp (is anyone out there still stupid enough to really believe that the USA actually cares what the UK does or doesn't do?) and on the other you've got Salmond being stupid enough to react with the brilliantly pathetic line of "if we break up it will be better for USA as they'll have 2 strong allies rather than 1."

I'm pretty sure that the US would prefer not to have the UK and Scottish PMs jumping up and down on the lawn of the Whitehouse vying for the President's attention in the same way that 2 spazzy kids that are last in line to be picked for the playground lunch time kick about try and beg the captain to pick them.
