"And yeah, 80 million pounds of profit last year. I'd buy that for a dollar" In business, last years profits are often irrelevant. This is a good example. It's a constant treadmill of trying to stay profitable - which is

You can't have a profitable bank that's insolvent. That doesn't make sense. The company has gone insolvent because it's no longer profitable.

What you said doesn't make sense. The seller requested the buyer to pull the money out of the bank into cash and then immediately deposited that cash into their bank account. What would be the reason for doing that? Doesn't make s

No matter how hard you try, cash is dying. If it's a good thing or not is another debate but you're not supporting anything by paying in cash. You're simply prolonging the death with no benefit of doing so other than to pat y
