Its not as bad as it sounds, the idea is that the money you borrow makes more than it costs to borrow it, its like having a mortgage on a buy to let property. If you are likely to earn £500 in rent and your mortgage payments are £300 then yes you are paying out £300 in interest every month but you are making £200 and you havent touched your own money. Havent read anything about the glazers thing this weekend but I should imagine its the same.
