thinking arms banking
I'd make banks more accountable. I think they should separate totally the personal banking arm with whatever else they are playing around with.
thinking special important
I've had a lot of dates, but I don't think there's been anyone that special or important.
attitude character thinking
I do think your attitude towards money is an inherent part of your character.
holiday thinking giving
I have been asked to lend people money - I now only ever give whatever amount is comfortable without thinking it will come back, otherwise when you see that person wearing a new coat or going on holiday you think but yes, where is my money?
mother thinking views
I think that in a family some are workers some are not. I certainly saw my mother work very hard and be in charge and never show any kind of fear about business deals. Her golden rule was you should never be embarrassed talking about money and asking for what you deserved. I take the same view.
among mine passion talk viewers

Property is my major investment. My accountant has put money into various long-term savings arrangements. To be honest, I am a bit vague about all that stuff.

Balance sheets bore me. I suspect if figures had excited me I would have gone into the city and now be a lot wealthier.
taken home risk
I've always taken risks and bought property well. As journalism wasn't particularly well paid, buying homes and selling them for profit improved my income.
decision shy best-business
My best business decision is always to have been unembarrassed about negotiating a decent deal. Not being coy or shy about money is second nature to me.
third-time thirds
I'm not going to marry a third time. It is just not necessary.
