    This thread seems to have started with a "these investors have too much debt, what will they do?"

    So for anyone who has watched the investors mentioned might consider ringing up an investment bank, "securitising" (and I use the term loosely) their debt, to other "investors", and then moving on with other things.

    If they have seen the ads, they can just "Nimble it"...and then deal with more important things.

    Like buying a new Lambo and a plane.

    Imagine those classics going cheap. Woo hoo.

    Look at the size of the bucket seats. Those motors wouldn't even have an electronic ignition. Where would you hook the scanner on one of those lol? Wait there were some diagnostic contraption that hooked up to the leads.

    Didnt someone mod a Commodore (pffft! No pun intended) 64 to do those diagnostics?

    And print it out on an Epson dot matrix?

    No, the other way around. The Investors Club started in 1994, when Nathan was still in nappies.

    To be fair to them, they did put a lot of people into property, even though the quality of the properties was poor. Many people needed that first peer support to step out.

    I guess they probably also collected commissions on the loans, legal fees, developers fees and the rest.

    Their best piece of marketing was to call it a club.

    The only resemblance to a club was what the punters got beaten up with and it was a blunt financial instrument.
