    Me, when I wanted to use an affectionate name for a cat preceded by a five letter word that starts with "p" and and in "ussy".

    Assuming you are male, your situation could well turn the ladies away for fear you are a 'mummy's boy' who will put parents first.


    Buying a house to let out, as suggested above, will not necessarily make your money grow. Being a proper landlord is not to be taken lightly, coming with both responsibilities and risk (maintenance, damage , bad tenants who don't pay or won't move out, void periods). Also, it may not be that easy to remove tenants when you decide you'd like to move in yourself.

    Any advice whether I should forget about the money or stay and keep saving for longer?
    Thanks
    Forget about the money.

    best way to forget it is to give it to someone else to look after for you - that way you never have to think about it.

    PM me for my sortcode/account number and I'll be happy to oblige.

    The OP apparently is renting out a place going by past threads as directed to by glasgowdan.
