    [Finance] The cryptocurrency (Bitcoin etc) thread

    The positive would be that digital currency would not be private but have the Bank of England behind it. We'd then have people with the integrity of the likes of Boris Johnson, Liz Truss and Kwasi Kwarteng having influence. Stability would be guaranteed.

    [News] Mexico over 50,000 people killed each year by drug cartels .

    Had 2 months there 10 years back. Excellent food and people. Rented a car for Yucatan and another from Oaxaca for 3 weeks but also used the buses. Want to go back for Baja California. Saw a few people hanging off ropes but just carried on eating and drinking.

    Highs and lows for me this weekend. Hove Park Saturday. Ninja was returning from a broken leg and he passed pleasantries with parkrunning Tony Bloom. I attacked the course with more effort than usual and was happy with the time despite having a 20 second stoppage to tie a shoelace. Running it...

    Noticed some good runs last week with @Garry Nelson's teacher closing in on his AG PB at Worthing and @big nuts defying creeping age with a fast 20 miler at 7:30 mile pace. Hove Prom had a 99.13% AG from Chris Naylor, she is a tough runner. I just got on with slow, long hills. It's going well...

    I hate Crawley. :ROFLMAO: I still get a Martlets badge and I guess Bronze is nearer Gold in colour than silver..... Hi, Well done on great runs at the weekend at the Sussex Masters Champs. Unfortunately, due to an error with Crawley thinking one of their athletes could compete in 2 team age...

    Had a good day out at Coombe Farm on Saturday. After a couple of months running slow and building up mileage decided to test out a X Country race against Sussex's finest old codgers. Ran with the 50+ and 60+ and one 70+. In the 60+ I finished around half way 15th from 27. 6 minutes behind John...

    [Finance] What is the best or worst career decision you've ever made?

    The answer "I don't have to DO anything" can be used both by aristocracy or people on benefits. A class leveller. :ROFLMAO:

    [Finance] What is the best or worst career decision you've ever made?

    Good decision for me was to do my PGCE in Economics. Better decision was to then not go into a school to teach. Used it to spend 2 years abroad in the 90's working only 2 hours a day and with 24 weeks a year paid holiday. Saved enough to invest in property and haven't been to work since 1996. A...

    I went to Bevendean for some hills practice. The wind made the long uphill similar to the in your face downhill and the directly in your face flat run to the finish. The ground was soggy, swampy mud. 26:22 was probably my slowest full effort 5k and I was beaten by a sausage dog. On a positive I...
