Mortgages!

[Nemesis]

I have just cancelled the large monthly direct debit to the building society as after 35 years of having a mortgage (or indeed various mortages) finally the end has come.

By next week, we will own our house and not the building society.

I think this calls for a great celebration, but instead (i'm not used to being wealthy yet...) I reckon a glass of beer.

But - YIPPPEEEE!!!!

Congratulations!

I still live under the illusion that I own my houses, but you really do! I would definately treat myself to a beer.

Congratulations ! Maybe push the boat out and go for a bottle of wine :wink:

Well - maybe, but hey there's still a fortune needed to be spent on the place so I don't want to waste cash!

You could raise the cash with a mortgage

 

[Nemesis]

Nah- the cash I used to spend on the mortgage can now be spent on the house!

I can still remember our Mortgage Freedom Day, which occurred soon after I retired almost five years ago*.

One of those really, really special days.



* Good heavens, Penners, surely not. You don't look nearly old enough to be retired.

Well done Ev, I wish I was near sorting out our borrowing for the money pit. Perhaps a jaunt to the West country could be afforded then, I may know a place to stay near some beer.
