I watched 25 minutes of the program and it was good entertainment. The guys in Bristol, that's not easy money. The two women in Liverpool - I was shouting NO NO NO at the TV. Great entertainment.Happy chappy0

That's an understatement! I couldn't help but laugh when the one woman nearly choked on her Bollinger when they were told they'd basically been bidding against themselves!
This beats the episode of Property Ladder with the £2,500 tiles in the downstairs loo by a mile. I'm hooked!Everything that is supposed to be in heaven is already here on earth.

"You'll Never Be Rich Working for Someone Else"
Too right, or investing in property at the moment, move on. Tom's got the right idea.Survivor of debt, redundancy, endowment scams, share crashes, sky-high inflation, lousy financial advice, and multiple house price booms. Comfortably retired after learning to back my own judgement.

It might be junk tv but if it stops anyone from making the mistakes we saw then it is worth watching. I enjoyed it - can't wait to see why the guys in Bristol are going to be gutted next week [maybe it will be a lesson in not being too greedy re:offers on house?!].
Sarah Beeny is fantastic! btw......0 -
I wondered about next week too. Maybe they have an offer but the actual money materialising takes longer than they expected.Happy chappy0

Yes it's nice to go shopping (hassle free) and then feet up (hassle free) and then find out when you get back after you've spent a wad that you are still up on the day !!! :beer: :beer:
Better still when you bought when the sheep were selling in a panic, resulting in the index being down in 3250 ish mark (and we are not talking decades ago, just a few years) !! These sheep will soon be selling off there BTL's and panicking !!! Just as they have done in the past with other investments !
As the guiness advert says 'good things come to those who wait' as something like that ! :beer:0
