        We all make choices in life, I decided to educate myself and over the years work my balls off to get the skills to be in the position I am now.

        Some people are more intelligent and motivated than others and I'm not my brother's keeper. Do I sympathise? Yes. Do I provide support? Yes.

        I pass on wealth, work, motivation when I can but I'm not in control of how other people decide what they want from life.

              Why are folks with families entitled to a non-frugal life? If they want to live a luxury lifestyle they should both work and not have kids.

              But anyway up here you don't need a big mortgage. £150k will get you a perfectly nice 3 bed detached house with a decent garden a handful of miles out of town.

                I have a modest 3 bedroom house in a terrace and one car which I own outright. I also have a moderately expensive hobby and, mainly, a wife and 2 children.

                I find that that seems to make a pretty effective job of burning through my income!

                    I found bootstrapping plan b while working was a very effective method until it started earning money.

                      May I enquire where one resides on a permanent basis? (Where you live bro'?)
