    maybe because he comes across as a Brad Pitt type of tough guy character on here when he's more of a Timothy Lumsden character

    IF I was making a packet out of a rising house market and IF I was financially secure and IF I had a happy and content life I would NOT need to be on here perpetually posting HPI is good news threads. On the other hand IF I was in desperate trouble and IF I had borrowed unwisely to buy at the peak and IF I owned several BTL's and was watching prices and rents fall THEN I would probably not have much else to take my mind off things.

    I think people who pump most are the ones in the most trouble. Those who just bought a house they could afford to live in will have a view, but they will not be the one's with the insane output, in some cases several thousands of posts, about how great everything is.

    This a great post Mr. Brown.

    And I never thought I would ever use the words 'Brown' and 'great' in the same sentence.:D

    Please dont tar us all with that brush.

    I just want a nice house to live in. I dont want to make thousands on it. I just want to raise a family in it.

    I've worked hard at Uni and have a decent job yet i still cant afford one. OK i could probably get a mortgage but i dont want to have to work all my life just to pay it off. I want to have a life too

    Amen to that. I second this.
