Don't blame us for the ever so slightly sensationalist title this week, blame Moneyweek who covered this recently (thanks to James Watters for the heads-up on this one).  Rather dramatically Moneyweek say: “Like a vast pyramid scheme, the UK housing market has been defying the reality of low wage growth and productivity, worsening affordability"  and.. “When a rocket runs out of fuel it continues to rise before plunging earthwards. This is where we seem to be now." Goodness!  Listen in full to get Rob & Rob's take on this one - do you think the Moneyweek argument could be flawed at all? Surely not?!  Resource of the week The Great Suspender (yes, we love the name too) is a Chrome add-on which automatically suspends unused tabs to free up system resources.
