Thoughts on Karma

Nemesis too - the spirit of divine retribution for those that succumb to hubris. (a term used in modern English to indicate overweening pride, self-confidence, superciliousness, or arrogance, often resulting in fatal retribution)

The Karma Bus is probably fully tanked up, air in the tyres and is hurtling towards its destination as we speak. Not least the credit crunch will support the journey into oblivion?

A house bought at the peak of the housing market (presumably with a view that my husband would be a contributor to the running cost?)

A house with a mortgage and 2 sub-prime loans against it, eating into the rapidly shrinking equity

A mortgage and credit market that now actively penalises or disqualifies people with little or no equity and lends with much more caution than we have ever seen in the last 15 years.

All that matters to the marriage wrecker is how things "appear" to be. She must keep up this illusion that she is a high earning, well regarded member of the professional community, that she can acquire material goods to attempt to impress, no matter how acquired.
