Pensions Worth 30% Less Than Three Years Ago

Renting since 2005? More likely to have been renting since he was 18 which would be more like 1991 (and if he had bought then the average house would have cost between £50k and £55k).
Actually I started renting at the age of 17.
By any rational measure, house prices then are irrelevant, and I am unsure as to why you would raise them.0 -

I am glad you are back in that respect. There cannot be anyone on here who coulda, woulda and shoulda bought (by their own admission) that we can so ably demonstrate has made momentous property purchase misjudgements. Renting for 20 years now - that's gotta hurt. :beer:0 -

There are very few people who could have bought at 17.
Again I am unsure as to the point you are trying to make.0 -
That you have been renting for 20 years but coulda, woulda and shoulda bought a few years ago (by your own admission).
I'm sure I could have bought earlier than a few years ago.
However, I did not, for a variety of personal reasons.
Again I am unsure of your point.
I'm also quite unsure of what this has to do with this thread.0 -

Yes but you only admitted that you woulda, coulda, shoulda bought a few years ago. How did you feel having to make a further appeal to be reinstated.

No. You keep saying it, over and over and over, but I have corrected you on this matter a number of times.
You choose to ignore that correction.
Which, as a rule, is the case with most of our interactions.0 -
