Having taken out a five-year fix this time last year, my smug-level is off the scale right now, though it is tempered by the knowledge that this is going to royally screw over a lot of people. I’m old enough to remember the news in the 1980s when similar events ruined a lot of people though thankfully not old enough to have had to have navigated it myself.
