I think him wanting a 4 bed 350k house by 25 is bit much... even back in the day my first place was a 2 bed mid terrace (with garage though) for 46k. Still I had enough left over to run a rally car and a road car (worked on them myself mind).
Granted the housing market is tough these days but modern kids expect too much...Do what thou wiltComment
