Man I love all these threads.

I've managed to buy three properties by just working hard. Everyone whines about not being able to afford a house but my generation will not compromise on things to be able to afford it. I started from nothing, had a job when I was 15 and started saving, got my first house at 22. I don't have a 100k job, i simply have a rule, for every $ I spend, I save a $. In my early 20's I worked away from home more than I was home, but it was worth it.

I have lived, I like to think I have a good work/life balance. I have travelled the world, and I have done some amazing things over the years.

I'm not trying to blow my trumpet i'm just saying I am over people saying it's too hard, it's not. I'm a simple bloke with a simple job, if i can do it anyone can, seriously. If you want something bad enough you will get it.
