    At 24 I was a property owner, but with a large mortgage and my net worth was probably about £10k. Ten years later I am now over 30 and a renter with a net worth approaching seven figures. Those that flaunt it are often not the ones that have it!

    very true! more likely to owe it rather than own it.

    In the absence of any men ... I had to find my own way.
    Got a caravan - nobody was interested
    Got a shared ownership - nobody was interested
    Moved 350 miles - nobody was interested
    Got a 6 bed house - nobody was interested
    Sold the big house, moved 200 miles, sitting on cash - nobody is interested
    Now in a houseshare - nobody's interested

    It's time for some people to realise the facts: nobody's interested.

    We need to do something else, like get a personality or good looks :(

    Damn......

    word of advice for you. If you're a single woman don't buy a 6 bedroomed house! any potential boyfriends will get the impression you want to fill all the bedrooms with kids.

    I think that most people just want to be single now, or just find them selfs not compatible with living with someone now that culture has changed away from marriage etc. I guess thats why house prices are expensive now everyone wants the sex in the city/friends life in a city centre flat on there todd.

    Try otherwise and fail..
