Re: Which?

So, take out 5 for wife and I and it's 2.5 left for each child, to grow when invested. Hopefully should set them up well, plus of course when wife and I pop out clogs there's more.

Looks like I'm one of two who would take the coin toss. You're looking at the difference between a nice house, vs never working again and your children never having to work either, if invested properly. That's worth a shot for me.

Re: The House Projects Thread

In all seriousness, that's how much a house like that _should_ cost. It's just that prices in the south particularly, have gone crazy. This. I have looked at stuff up to £1.5m in Worcestershire and there's a lot of optimistic pricing; I think this (on the same road, just done up by a builder) will ...

BTW, Deb is now mad at me as I showed her your place and she's upset about what we could get for our money in another part of the country. Said 'if you say we are moving I will pack tomorrow!'. Great.

A worthy winner of multiple BAFTA gongs too... I wonder what we'll see next from him.
