[quote]As a young man, JK made an brilliant/logical/prudent decision - to buy a functional and airy residence.

I've never even been down his way - and won't be. Some though want their abode to reflect their stature/status.

Status symbols are gone - your daily thought patterns define you. With an important/overriding desire to survive.

Was in East Grinstead today - now I'm not so ....

Staus symbols have been replaced by trends and fads. I bought my house cheap because it's rustic, the estate agent said it's a do a upper which I disagree with, it has character and everything is in intact. I am out in rural-ish West Country. We have all the essentials and minimal dust collectors.

House prices are getting very silly in the UK, in the U.S you can get for about 3 houses paid for outright, for the same price what you are paying for one mortage just in the UK. However, it depends on the area and condition in the States.

£26k will get you a garage with a parking space. Over in the U.S $26k can you get a small family home.

I have no idea what Bishop Auckland is like but you can buy a house using one year worth of basic salary.

Lester Pidgeon	Where to live, has changed over recent years! Not just near friends and family, any more. Key factors:- 1. Biggest is - quality of life. Age too. 2. Nowadays, many enjoy working from home; less hassle/travel. 3. However communication now, is fantastic, free/instant money transfer also. 4. A personal preference, be near local civilisation, with a parking space! 5. See Europe often - Africa too/54 countries. DOVER tomorrow - the 3am departure will be decidedly labour intensive....
