I came to this forum looking for advice on what I am entitled to as a british tax payer and what my options would be if ends dont meet. Ok so my house is a little bit bigger than yours? who cares? its a 200k mortgage at 6.3% (bought in the boom on a 5 year fix) I am tied in to it and thats that.
As for taking the mick out of my spelling, as I said earlier I wasnt given anything extra as a child, I went to a crappy primary school and a worse secondary school, I joined the army and travelled the world including all the places you read about and hear about on the TV. Sadly in basic training they neglected to perfect my English, spelling being one of my worst points! I worked hard and saved hard all my life. I have 6 houses 5 by to let that I dont make a single penny on, they actually cost me in the region of £150 a month to keep. You will say that I am insane, I will say that I am not going to rely on the state pension and this is so my kid doesnt have to go in the army, my kid can go to uni, and I can pay.
All I wanted was advice on where to go for form filling and roughly how much I will get to help towards the bills. I didnt expect to be mocked for my spelling called a biggot or an "inexperienced life person" believe me, I have enough to last me.
Thanks to the other people who gave some good tales of their experiences, we will cope no doubt.
Thanks
