You are welcome to ask questions on Economics.
I will post the answer on this blog, for everyone to benefit from.
I shall try to answer the economics question and / or point to other resources but please bear in mind.
- The replies will be guidance and not for duplication. Your essays should always be your own work.
- My speciality is economics for British A Level standard. My university economics is rusty in parts, because generally I don’t use it in teaching A level economics.
- I can’t guarantee to always give answers it also depends on my time schedule.
- The aim is not to do people’s homework for them, but, help in the understanding of economic concepts.
- The answers will not necessarily be complete. I know several of my essays on this site could be improved.
- Please Write the Questions clearly and with proper spelling. Some questions I have not answered because they were not clear what was meant.
- I will answer as a new post. Check home page of blog for new post. With question and answers
I studied PPE at Lady Margaret Hall college, Oxford University, and currently work as an Economics A Level teacher. I have also examined several different economic units for Edexcel AS and A2.
If you find the information useful, you are welcome to buy me a coffee :)

Isn’t the current credit crunch really the explosion of a huge credit bubble going back to 1950 starting with HP?
Hello. Can you tell me why anybody would buy US treasuries now with little to no yield when you can just park your money in an FDIC money market account or CD and get more? Surely with FDIC insurance coming from the same place as the implied guarantee of US treasuries money markets are a much better place to be, correct? This is a treasury bubble without a doubt yes?
