did Paul really say this about the global economy?

did Paul really say this about the global economy?

I just read this online via The Times.co.uk Macca is quoted from Stool Pigeon mag excerpt below.
Having a billion in the bank is no protection from the credit crunch.

Even Sir Paul McCartney checked with his accountant. He told The Stool Pigeon music paper: “I actually did phone my guy up and say,

‘How exposed are we?’. He said, ‘You’re as exposed as everyone. If the banks all go broke . . .’. But, as far as the way we do business, there’s not a huge speculative exposure.”

The ex-Beatle, now recording in experimental mode as The Fireman, blamed the global economic meltdown on the “irresponsibility” of yuppie debt culture.
