Bank of England Statement - Money Matters
Bank of England
Firstly I would like to introduce myself as the new Chancellor of the Exchequer. To all those that haven’t read Final Destiny’s article (link) my name is roadrunnerspeed and I have been working with the previous Chancellor (Hassan Pesaran) over the past month to help the economy. I have now stepped up to the position of Chancellor and look forward to keeping you up to date with current issues and the BoE’s standing.
The first order of business is to announce the currency benchmarks. They are as follows:
1 GBP = 0.027 GOLD
1 GOLD = 38.5 GBP
This see’s a 0.5 GBP (1.3😵
increase in the value of gold. This now means that there is 3.95% advantage in selling GOLD rather than buying GBP. The reason that this stance has been taken is to encourage the sale of GOLD on the market place. However before any of you rush to take off your GBP offers and buy GOLD, remember, if you buy GOLD you will get less than if you are selling GBP, so it does pay to sell GBP.
This increase also means that the price of goods within the eUK will effectively become cheaper.
e.g. (based on the benchmarks)
Before the increase:
Q5 house costs (3000 GBP) - 78.95 GOLD
After the increase:
Q5 house costs (3000 GBP) – 77.92 GOLD
However, as with all things there is a good and a bad side. The value of goods becoming cheaper is one of the benefits of this increase however the increase also means that the value of your pay becomes less. This isn’t a big difference and in fact you won’t notice this as the market has been operating around the 1 GOLD = 38.5 GBP level for quite a while.
The second order of business is general information. One of the main things that I seem to get asked is “can I have money?”. The simple answer is no. Unless you have government approval you will not get any money.
If you are a small business or thinking of starting a business, but require a loan, then please contact:
For GOL
😨Ministry of Trade
For GBP: Small Business Association (or fill out this form)
The eUK forums are a vital source of information and an excellent point of contact. If you have not done so already then please sign up to the eUK forums – (link)
Finally if you would like to keep up to date with benchmarks and plans that the BoE are carrying out then please subscribe to this newspaper. (This month is set to be an interesting one economically and you wouldn’t want to miss out on anything that affects you.)
If you have any questions that have not been answered in this then please feel free to send me a message.
Signed
Chancellor of the Exchequer

The operations of the BoE should give the US Government some lessons on how to run an effective monetary policy.
Congratulations on your appointment, hoping you have a smooth tenure.
looks like the BoE is going to do good under u RoadRunner
who are your under minister(s) working with you this month?
I feel safer already
"This increase also means that the price of goods within the eUK will effectively become cheaper."
Over the past week or so the price of food has risen from around 76p to around 99p.
That is to do with General Managers and Demand. Neither of those are controlled by the Bank of England.
RoadRunner is excellent on the Money market
