The crisis is over\u2026<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n First of all, I am convinced that the crisis ended some time ago. The crisis as such came to an end in these parts when governments, in order to save the existing system, injected large sums of money through their officials, thereby saving the banks from imminent collapse. That was approximately two years ago.<\/em><\/p>\n The current model has nothing to do with the crisis; it was the crisis that led us down a dark path \u2013 or perhaps we led ourselves down it \u2013 because we wanted to live in that state of WELL-BEING that we bought on credit, and which we now have to pay for.<\/em><\/p>\n For years \u2013 and I\u2019d say quite a few \u2013 we\u2019ve been living beyond our means. How many of us have heard so-called professionals say: \u201cYou\u2019ll have to wait two months for this repair\u201d; \u201cThey\u2019re snatching them right out of my hands\u201d; \u201cJuan bought a flat for 50 million\u201d\u2026 and countless other phrases that foreshadowed the worst. But very few of us realised that the situation was unsustainable, that we couldn\u2019t keep piling up debt indefinitely \u2013 and remember the best one of all: property prices NEVER FALL.<\/em>..<\/p>\n Under the new model, each of us must and is obliged to fend for ourselves. We can no longer expect anything from a pharaonic, lethargic and bloated state. We have always lived in the hope that\u2026 either the banks, or the state, would sort out our problems for us.<\/em><\/p>\n It\u2019s time to learn to live in the tunnel; let\u2019s not keep wasting time looking for a way out. We\u2019re already in it, so let\u2019s learn to live in it \u2013 just as we did when we swapped our Casio and Olivetti typewriters for computers. It wasn\u2019t easy, but it wasn\u2019t that difficult either. Only with intelligence, innovation and determination can we change our destiny.<\/em><\/p>\n There are endless opportunities in this tunnel; we just need to be ready to discover them \u2013 and \u2018ready\u2019 means trained and specialised. Only the brave will find the way.<\/em><\/p>\n <\/p><\/blockquote>\n Once again, thank you, Jorge.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Many of you will remember Jorge, our great Argentine friend, who has been contributing from time to time to our blog.

<\/strong><\/em>This is the headline most eagerly awaited by the majority of people in this country. I would go so far as to say that it is more eagerly awaited than the cancer vaccine.<\/em><\/p>\n
