Beatles' Paul McCartney Concerned About Credit Crunch

He approaches bank manager...

Sir Paul McCartney has admitted that he is concerned about the ongoing global financial crisis.

The former Beatle said he had phoned up his accountant in order to find out how “exposed” his finances were.

"He said, 'You're as exposed as everyone - if the banks all go broke'. But generally speaking, as far as the way we do business, there's not a huge speculative exposure,” Sir Paul said.

He added that he was “unhappy” with how the current crisis, which has sparked fears of a worldwide recession, is affecting other people.
