Owning your own home

I guess it's not for everyone. Some people want to be 5 mins from a tube at all times.

I wfh pretty much all the time and maybe go into work once a week or once every two weeks. I obvs cycle.

My missus goes to work v early (teacher) so can be at Wanstead Station on a bus in about 12 mins in the morning.

I was tempted to sack London off and move to the country but I'd get tired of the racism and whitevan man stuff that inevitably comes with that move. So I see this as a fairly reasonable compromise.

I also anticipate being able to sell up to some chinless rich boy from stokey or Islington in 25 years time for approx 3m the way things are going. Ill buy a ranch style bungalow with concrete lions out in Essex then I guess and cash in my chips.
