How have you done the maths?Think Jamie Dimon was saying they need to get to 7%. A lot of people playing the hope game and thinking rates will go down are going to get burned. More so in Australia. Imagine your million dollar home loan going from 2 to 8%. That’s going from about $850 to $1700 per week!

Another time last month I was at a doctor's surgery and the nurse was increasing an injection dose from 0.05ml to 0.1ml. I mentioned to her that it was a big increase, doubling the dose, and she said "it's not double, is it?" I was flabbergasted.
Thx for clarification, guys. I was thinking about interest only. I guess we all have brain farts at times.
But it never ceases to amaze me how poor a lot of Aussies math skills are. I bought 23 dollar bottle of wine the other day and i gave the cashier a 50 buck note with 3 bucks to get no coins in change. She hands me 25 bucks. I said that it wasn't right and she got all defensive and confused. The manager had to come and help her "work it out".
