What would you do?

[Lids]

In the last 3 years the bank of England has engaged in something know as quantitative easing.  This has resulted in them buying £200 billion worth of debt in the hope this money will find its way into the economy and stop us entering recession.

Well in the UK this is equal to approx £3500 per person (including children) or approx £8260 per household.

What would you have done with the money if it was given to you and you could only spend it in your country?

Mine =

New Kitchen, plaster hall and landing, build new garage, landscape garden, solar panels and maybe a new car.

Surprisingly close to you Mike. We'd have seven grand coming in, so I'd get solar panels (the back of our house is perfectly positioned, and everything except the hob on the cooker is electric!), then the rest would be spent on the garden, a new garage and kitchen extension. Boring, huh?!

I would spend it like you guys ! Lately i'm getting scared to spend money on a Saturday morning in the home-improvement markets...

Isn't it funny that we're serious petrolheads but when offered a big wodge of cash (which would see me back on the dragstrip instantly!) we look to spend it on our houses. It's probably because it's worth brownie points with the ladies in our lives, and they can be worth far more!
