In the ongoing saga which is my attempt to raise an absurd amount of cash to buy a few hundred square meters of Dream Home in London, I have had three bits of bad news this week.
At the start of last week I thought that I had pretty much sold everything I needed to sell. I’d only just become a ‘forced seller’, which saw me liquidating for example some FTSE-100 stocks at a FTSE of around 5900 – around 5% below the level I entered this process at. I had three things to do: collect cash from assorted bank accounts, confirm my margin loan, and sell one particular asset.
