Starring Jamie as J...Opening scene from RocknRolla<br /><br />Starring Jamie as Johnny Quid<br /><br />https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NRTymVjdLNQ<br /><br />People ask what’s a RocknRolla?<br /><br />And I tell them it’s not about drums, drugs and hospital drips. Oh, no. There’s more there than that, my friend.<br /><br />We all like a bit of the good life.<br /> Some, the money.<br /> Some, the drugs.<br /> Others the sex game,<br /> The glamour, or the fame.<br /><br />But a RocknRolla, oh, he’s different.<br /> Why?<br /> Because a real RocknRolla wants the fucking lot.<br /><br />I pay my taxes to a man called John Key.<br /> And John Key has the keys to the back door of this booming city.<br /><br />Let me give you an example of how Johnny has worked his magic.<br /> Two years ago, this property cost half a million.<br /> Today, it costs 1 million.<br /><br />How did this happen?<br /><br />Attractive tax opportunities for foreign investment….restrictive building consent and massive uncontrolled immigration/colonisation.<br /><br />Auckland, my good man….is fast becoming the financial and cultural capital of New Zealand.<br /> Auckland is on the rise.<br /> Property value has gone one way: up.<br /> And this has left the natives struggling to keep a foothold in the property ladder.<br /><br />I can’t teach you how to skin a cat….but I can tell you a lot about the money in bricks and mortar.<br /> Like he said, it’s gone one way.Jamienoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11906042.post-64228568135202951622016-09-16T18:48:34.022+12:002016-09-16T18:48:34.022+12:00Maybe rocks get exploded into little pebbles. D-Da...Maybe rocks get exploded into little pebbles. <a href="http://pro.agorafinancial.com/AWN_dollarreset_0716/MAWNS813/?h=true" rel="nofollow">D-Day for US$</a><br />You sometimes quote Bill Bonner. There is an advertising link on his web site.A Jim Rickards reckons a new world currency is to be launched 30 September 2016. This will have dire effects on the US economy, including the stock market being quite ill. This major disruption to the US economy will effect NZ.<br />I'm never sure how seriously to take doomsayers, especially Bonner who has been forecasting collapse for over 20 years now<br />PeterAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
