Are Most People On Hpc Still Saving Hard For A Home?

[Guest Daddy Bear]

As long as it doesn't change to like it did in the 1st 2nd world war. I'm pretty happy with things, a slow recovery is just fine.

It's a shame, this was quite a positive thread.

Tough to do without a time machine.

sorry fella.

I am sure everything will be fine, property will drop 40%, we'll all be able to snap up 3/4 bed houses with land (with no mortgage) and our quality of life will get better and better.Wars are things of the past. Economically we are on the road to a recovery. All good.

Forget the dog!

What I want to know is what the Hoff did to Ethel?

Bye Bye thread, wish you well on your journey to the land of no eyes.

No, in fact have depleted my STR fund by around £5,000 since late 2007.

I've got that beat. Spent around 23k in unnecessary discretionary spending since the end of last year. Trips abroad, car change, toys. Pausing for breath for the time being. You save a little you spend a little. Still got a 25% deposit cash amount for a property which is steadily climbing.

Now's a spend time in my opinion.

Damn, if only this site was around in 1999 we'd have been able to see what your take on the Y2K bug was

Wow. That's all I can say - so many of you with your own online business, self-employed, or big paying jobs - I can only dream of such amounts of money.

EDIT - good reading this thread - love the comic moments e.g. need a time machine lol...

Don't worry, you're not on your own. I'm not in any major income bracket either.

I had the same thoughts. I realised though that I needed a five year plan and a good idea. Then I would have something to work towards. The plan should involve steps such as getting out of debt and setting yourself up so that you can then start to mould your life the way you want it. For me money isn't the same aim, it's a particular lifestyle that I am after (reclusive and hidden away in the highlands whilst doing my own research)

It took me about a year to get the right idea. The plan is taking longer than originally intended but I realised that I had to extend it to sort out my circumstances in the short term. No matter though, I am still heading in the right direction.
