...and with return flights to New York at only £250 quid, I could come over with my student loan and buy the place!

Any other brits thinking of going to America while the rate is in it's current state?

i'd rather have a disease

I'm from there, but I now live abroad.

You should go to Minnesota and ask WHERE WAR lololollolol

...That means the dollar got stronger than 2-3 months ago.

I realize how bad the current rate is, but I'm still submitting an application to study in Sheffield for the '08-'09 year.

huh?

Gris is in Norway just now.

It won't get better I'm afraid. I think 2008 will be a not-so-great economic year (which means a Democrat will be in the WH).

Americans are in serious debt. Foreclosures skyrocketed in 2007 (some 2 mil foreclosures). According to Federal Reserve, Americans are in total $2.51 trillion in debt. I think this "economic stimulus package" is not going to help us at all. We're being told left and right to use your $$ to spend spend spend! It'll help boost the economy! Horse****. A $600 check is going to do very little towards the economy. Yeah it might pay off one credit card but then there are four others to pay off. Americans need to stop spending their $$. If Americans continue their rank spending, we're going to be in some serious trouble.

I'm planning on taking that $600 and spending it on a nice leather easy chair.

Of course, I'm saving about 1/3 of each paycheck between my savings account, my IRA, and a 401(k). I don't think all of my American brethren share my situation.

The Canadian dollar is worth slightly more.
I love it.

1 U.S. dollar = 0.996000064 Canadian dollars

SHUT UP

The government is just as bad. At this rate we'll be lucky if we don't have to raise taxes just to pay of the interest on our debt.

Say, Gris...you wouldn't happen to be stopping by Finland, would you?

bring us back some hot norway chicks, preferrably blonde with blue eyes, hail the fatherland:tfti:

Wait, I think it might be Denmark.

It's some crappy scandanavian place anyway.

1$ = 5000 scottish puddockstools, the highest form of currency

take that bacon

fixed.

hawt norwegian chick

Notice how zee pits are not showing?

Bet they conceal a shag carpet.

if you lived in viking land you wouldn't shave either. Its too cold to waste hair. Thats why the best scandinavians are the ones who move to warmer climates. >_>

Oh no! Sometimes people have their natural hair! Help!

DIE NATURE DIE

GO CARBON DIOXIDE

not happy.

To set the record straight, I'm in Denmark.

I don't know where all I'll be traveling yet: still figuring that out.

When did 50 Cent become a McDonalds mascot?

Gee, I thought that was Sugarless on first glance.

Hidden talents, much? XD

Everyone knows we barter with heroin.

Heroin and whiskey. Duh.

That doesn't sound very fun.

Too many downers.

im gunna use the $600 to take a bite of whats left of my loan
