this country is stagnant, very very little capital or research and development spending by middle sized business, very difficult to scale a business from middle sized to big, poor, outdated and hierarchical work/management culture highly based on class/status that stifles innovation, disruption, efficiency. We have a stagnant stock market that lacks any high growth sectors, is overly focused on dividiend payments instead of growth, and is overly weighted with banks and financial services. The culture towards housing as well is a cancer on this country, so much capital invested into housing instead of productive ventures, prices are bid up making it hard from people to spend income into the economy, or afford to move out of their parents home and have a family etc. We have i think the highest tax rate in europe, but some of the worst public services.

Its a shit show, but mostly cultural issues

Then she went abroad and “took a pay cut! It was hard” ended up in Morgan Stanley and now makes 4x national average back home years later.

I mean even if you manage to get yourself to uni in a working class family its proven to be much harder to get a job etc at minimum.

I don't think that's totally true. There's more of an investing culture in the UK than in France, for example. The tax shelter arrangements in the UK are simple, generous and normie-friendly.

Well, it's understandable, because house prices in the 2010s have massively outpaced UK stock gains, and matched global stock gains. There's no perception of an advantage to be had from stock investing.

If the rest of the 2020s prove to be a decade of a weaker US dollar, commodity bull market, ex-US stocks dominance over the US, then the UK FTSE should do well. But normies will pile in to UK stocks at the end of this bull run and end up disappointed.

Blair made a deal with the establishment where he got positive press coverage in exchange for letting the banks lend as much as possible against land.
