I thought nothing about this added up about this except the innocence of youth!
Lots of us were "in at the death" of the last property crash + wonder what we did to deserve that.....we're still bailing ourselves out. We therefore get quite incensed at hearing people saying the world owes them a living, just cos they've worked hard for 2 years!!!
Why not take a break from work and go to the National Coalmining Museum - I think it's not far from Lincoln - and see how other people not so long ago have had to work appallingly hard all their lives, just to keep starvation at bay. (and no, I wasn't brought up in a shoebox, or even Yorkshire!)
Good luck with the renting: I bet it makes more sense than ever now.
Ha, ive been to the national coal mining museum believe it or not although it is a treck from lincoln. I have a big interest in industrial britain. I had a couple of months off work round march time. It was nice to have a break although towards the end i wasnt half ready to get back to work again. Cheers0 -
Hello,
I still think:
a: You need a proper career.
b: You need a cute 18 year old blond
c: You need to spend some of your wad on a nice holiday
d: You dont need to buy a house
e: Lying to the extent you have is a bad idea, im not bothered with the fraud thing stuff the banks im more worried about you overstretching yourself.
f: Labouring aint a proper job. Its a way to earn money for people who cant/dont want to work/study/move on in life.
I must admit in those two years i was doing myself some real harm working like i did, I was drinking somewhere in the region of 10-12 red bulls a day and being a gamer i only had 5-6 hours sleep a night and slept most of sunday. I have a determination problem, i have to much of the stuff. As you said before who wants to own a house at 18, very few i imagine but i am one of the few. I want to get out there in the world not sit around waiting for something to happen. I dont labour anymore by the way, i work with specialist machinery and wood crafting tools. Its a specialist job. Labouring was purely for money making and although enjoyable, its a job that sends you to your grave early.
My girl is 19 and brunette, that close enough??
Ibiza, not for me, i am more of a Scandinavia person

I think you are being a little harsh on the labourers! Without these you would not have a house to live in, I know ppl that love the job! What one person sees as important in life the other does not! As a mortgage broker I actually dont care about money or owning houses! What I do is a way of earning money, just because I sit at a desk in a suit does not mean I am any better than a labourer!
Hell I bet most labourers could spell better than me LOL!!0 -
So, you made up a fake story to get a reaction from people... that makes you a troll0

I dont understand the problem here. I pay my taxes. Ive worked hard. I earn enough to pay my bills. Is not a lie that is effecting anyone in this entire world if only eventually me. The mortgage company own 90% of my house excluding rise in value. I think you will find if you ask around people lie alot about income. My solicitor said it is the only way. And before you start slating my solicitor, they aren't some dodgey alleyway company they are a completely legit company and one of the biggest in the area.
correction
you own 10% of the banks house! :money: :rotfl:0 -

Yeh its true about my parents, It helped that it was a character property being an old rectory an all, They had also spent a couple of hundred doing it up, very large extension, modernised and landscaped.
As for redbull i hate the stuff now, makes me feel sick. lol0 -
Well TBH I don't know what to believe now, but I always post in the full knowledge that the post I'm replying to may be total and utter crap.
What is frightening is that some people still believe that lying about income by 100% or more is the way to go. Your friend gives bad advice - don't listen to him.Behind every great man is a good womanBeside this ordinary man is a great woman£2 savings jar - now at £3.42:rotfl:0
