Owning your own home

Anyone interested in joining me starting a 'renting your home thread'?

Don't want to start a debate with thatcherites about rights & wrongs of the UK housing system but it doesn't work for me, i'd be pleased to rent until the day I die other than the clear tax unfairness.

Would look for suggestions of alternative places to invest money other becoming indebted to a bank to speculate on future population densities.

Anyone looking at the Royal mail share offering for example? I see it giving a much greater return than the average for UK property currently over the long term.

Really?
