Originally posted by TrollI'm not sure I'd brag about only owning a 200k house... sounds a bit permie to me
One of my houses (which cost £68k 15 years ago -and long ago paid off the mortgage) is now (ridiculously)worth over £200k, but it's a dumpsville place and only benefits from a proximity to London. I would never ever consider going back there to live.
Also 70k @ year is no big deal for a contractor but I suppose it's all relative

A million isn't what it used to be. I would expect a lot (most) of people here would have net assets > £1m within 10-20 years.

I am worth around 300k if I liquidise all assets, that ain't minted...
I've always thought £5k a month would be a nice residual income, but I'm no where near that and to be honest it probably isn't enough anyway!

House prices are going up 10% every year forever. I will be minted in 15 years time.
