Well at least I listened to your bearcast Tom, totally agree with the closed shop stitch up in the professions, but have to admit that I needed an antidote to listening to that cringe worthy garbage that is strictly come dancing, that my partner watches.
Hey onwards and upwards, up the bastards.

Great idea Tom, let’s not bother with professional qualifications and just have a free-for-all among the accountants, lawyers, doctors, dentists etc… let’s extend it to the trades like mechanics and plumbers. Getting my teeth sorted out is so expensive because I have to pay this annoyingly expensive dentist who took the time out to go to dentist school (or wherever it is they go) so he could actually learn where to put the drill.

Wouldn’t be too quick to dismiss Jim Slater’s share tips. I’ve tracked him on and off for a decade or so, as my interest developed and waned etc., etc., and and I’d say he’s almost godlike in his recommendations bearing fruit.

Having said that, I’m out of OPAY last year, so it will be interesting to watch how OPAY performs now that both Jim and Zak have piled in with the thumbs up (Robbie Burns too).
