…is that the comedy is good.
“You see, what happened is that we lent the money you gave us to Joe and the Kennedys and Mrs Maklin to buy houses with, and then we lent them some more money to buy a second property on a buy-to-let basis and a third rental property too and then we lent them some more money against the value of all the various properties that wed lent them the money to buy, so they could go on a nice holiday.
In fact the money youd deposited with us wasnt enough for all the money wed encouraged them to borrow, so we packaged up their mortgages and sold them on to some other people so that wed have more money to lend more people to buy more houses.
Are you with me?”
