Agreed. For a while there I used to think I was a failure. I drive an old car, I don't take expensive holidays etc. I used to think, how come so many others could afford all this stuff, thing is, they couldn't
The other day someone being interviewed in a street for a radio station was bemoaning the government and declaring they needed to do something about the debt everyone was in - or words to that effect.
There's a whole generation who have yet to experience what happens when the debt collector comes a calling.
Although I've said the government are not to blame perhaps they could have throttled reckless lending and borrowing. Instead they opted for raking in billions in stamp duty.
