Thanks Mr DDU. I think property is great for people who are not disciplined enough to put the money they would have spent on repayments into other investments. For many many people it is a good form of forced saving. However if you are able to save yourself, then is it just one of the things you can put your money in. Of course that is just the “excel” side of things, if you own you can’t be forced to move etc.

Good luck with the soon-to-be new daughter!

Nice going! Congrats on reaching some great milestones and it’s good to see the total worth on the graph just going up and up.

At the moment the only things we own are shares (including REITs) and cash. Over time we want more of our wealth to be in shares and some point to own our own property – not sure when that will happen yet.

Good luck for the rest of the year 🙂

Mr DDU
