Maybe this time you'd be finally right.
The clock is always right at least twice a day.
Sorry for 2 liners, can't help to counter-balance.
My views are your Gilbert & Sullivan's:

Cracks Are Appearing in Australia’s Trillion-Dollar Debt Pile
The Reserve Bank of Australia frequently seeks feedback on the health of the economy. It might want to call the debt counselors soon.
Homeowners, consumers and property investors around Australia are making more calls to financial helplines as three warning signs back up the spike in demand: mortgage arrears are creeping up, lenders’ bad debt provisions have increased and personal insolvencies are near an all-time high.
“Its steadily out of control -- I don’t know of too many financial counseling services where demand doesn’t exceed supply,” said Fiona Guthrie, chief executive officer of Financial Counselling Australia, who says the biggest increase in calls is from people suffering mortgage stress. “There are more people who have got mortgages that they can’t afford to pay.”
