How much to rent?
Comments

This is simply another stupid thread attempting to prove one viewpoint.
Like so many other issues on here nothing is cut and dried. How much money needed investing depends entirely on the circumstances of the person investing.
A combination of decent interest rates, ISA's and unused tax allowance mean that we would need no-where near £240000 invested to pay £1000 a month in rent. For others, the amount invested might need to be much more.
What does this prove? Nothing, other than the fact that we are all different and what might suit one person wouldn't suit another.0 -
