[QUOTE="apprentice87, post: 527396, member: 13534"] Always remember that when people bought a house years ago, say the 1970's the mortgage was a lot AT FIRST but wages were going up a lot, and after a while the mortgage seemed next to nothing. I would meet people that would say "what do you think my mortgage is" laughing at how cheap it was. Round where i live you would meet people that said [bragging a bit about how well they had done] "I have got a 100,000 house" that would be a VERY nice house then.. You also had jobs for life.. Now, you could not even buy a house for £100,000 and we live in a world of zero hour contracts and nearly all jobs on the minimum wage. Then you have the price of stuff now, totally taking the piss the price of electric and petrol are.. It is a different world now. In many parts of the country there is precisely no chance of someone EVER being able to buy a house.. Private rents are taking the piss too.. I feel sorry for the kids of today.. john.. [/QUOTE]
