So I Own a Bank

Seems I'm now the proud owner of a bank, namely Northern Rock. Or at least I'm a part owner now that HM Government has decided to nationalise it. Mind you, I guess I should use Prime Minister Gordon Brown's prefered phrase of "temporary public ownership."

The newly appointed Chief Executive is said to be on a salary of £90K (about $180K for the Transatlanically Challenged) per month. Yes read that again: Per month. Nice work if you can get it, as they say.

Any chance I can get a cheap loan by the way? LOL
