Yeah we had great times during the Thatcher years sleeping in the one room of the guest house they eventually managed to buy with the 18% morgage rate and worked like bastards to make successful. In the end we lucked out, like alot of people did who were given the opertunity under thatcher to buy their homes, since house prices went throught the roof.
So yeah were now relatively well off because my Dad worked like a bastard, got knocked down and got back up and and worked harder and we got a little lucky and he instilled in me that same attitude, you have to take the odd risk and just work as hard as possible and not expect any hand outs. |
I meant now, I have no idea what you (Or your family) were doing during the 80's.
If anything, your post reinforces what I said.
