Interesting point Gwaps, In the eighties I was earning approx. £7000 a year and took on my first mortgage and was living a comfortable life!Originally Posted by gWaPito
When I was last earning 18k back in the late 80s I cld hardly afford a holiday for 2 adults and 2 kids to the Canaries.
Seemingly now, some folks can take hols to the Philippines earning way less than 18k, get themselves loved up and married, to boot.
All the while, presumably in receipt of taxpayers handouts to keep their heads above water.
No offence meant to anybody. ..it's just an observation

..I thought you said quite a while back on here that you lost your £250000 home to your first wife. If that's the case, the value of it certainly multiplied over a short period
