    I found it.....

    The definitive example of why housing in this country is so ****ed up.

    http://news.bbc.co.uk/media/avdb/new...04_16x9_bb.ram

    These two lads were on the news last night. They own 2 BTL flats and are looking at buying 2 more but still live at home with the parents (probably becuase they cannot afford mortgage repayments as both look like they have crappy jobs).

    Does it not strike you as irnonic that they are exactly the sort of people that are keeping themselves off the property ladder. Why are they suddenly labelled as property tycoons becuase they put 5k down on a house and use the rent to pay off the mortgage. At most they will be clearing £50 a month off the capital and the rest is just financing the interest.

    I tell ya...when my prayers are answered and the interest rates go bang people like they are going to be ****ed over and it will make me so happy.

    The cheek of them, they should have taken the deposit money they used and pissed it up the wall, maybe wasting some on a couple of hookers. And of course they should be living in the houses they own, the ******* nerve, daring to take a chance on making some money so that they don't have to be fed,washed, educated and entertained at hard-working (or even my) taxpayers expense.
    ******* capitalist bastards. They should be sent to a re-education camp, or as it's known nowadays, Britain.

    Twat.
    Why not?

      damn...looks like your one of them. When will people (maybe more than Sayara Beg) realise that they are not making money for themselves. Just are just shifting it to the mortgage companies.

      Edit - Forgot to add: Twat.

        you're, not your.
        Jesus H Christ, it's no wonder NL get elected.
        Let's try to make this dead simple so that even a sockpuppet of very little brain can understand it.
        They put up £5k to buy a house. Somebody else pays the mortgage on the house. when they sell the house for £x at some point in the future their profit is £x-£5k (simplistically as there's no other way you would understand it). Now you may be one of those idiots who thinks that as more people come into the country the pressure on housing is going to fall (actually you probably do, you're (see "you're", not "your") apparently so thick) but I don't think that IN THE LONG-TERM prices are going to fall dramatically.
        I could be wrong of course (it wouldn't be a first) but then I don't rent........
        Why not?

              Do you have the worlds smallest screen or is there a reason your lines are so short.

                    I’ve always found that the BBC popular news as a good contrarian indicator. This report is definitely a sell signal. Remember the famous quote of Joseph Kennedy (father of JFK): "You know it is time to sell when the shoe-shine boy tries to give you stock tips." In this case the shoe-shine boy is an under twenty year old boy still living with his mum, selling second hand cars in the Midlands.
