Your mortgage is going up! Are you ready to be homeless?
Can you afford to feed your kids?

Dont have a mortgage, so that can't happen.

Not going to happen.

They are old enough to feed themselves
and have done for more than 60 years
and dont have a mortgage either.

to spend it all at the rate that I spend it before I cark it now, so that
is quite academic. I haven't even bothered to apply for a part pension
even tho that would save me quite a bit for that reason.

There are still plenty of very safe jobs still available
if you have enough of a clue to get qualified
While in theory there is a problem with buying a house
I have been watching 3 of my mates who are that age
doing it right now, admittedly in a country town but
still with total house value of $550K, all having a new
house built for them. One does casual work, grape
vine pruning and training, the other one works for
himself as a house painter. Forget what work the
other one's husband does. None of the wives work.
> Must he a tad hard nowdays
I thought that until I helped them all to do that.
The first one had to work for by far the biggest
chook/turkey/duck operation in the entire
southern hemiphere as a forklift driver to get
the mortgage, but quit as soon as he got the
loan because he hates that work.

kids. The family's aim was to buy a house without borrowing money.
The husband had 3 jobs; the driver of a milk tanker from the dairies
into town (starting at 4am), a full time job after that, and a night
job with me until 8pm. His wife had a full time job also. The
kids went to school and sometimes would be with their father while he
worked with me.
I do not know how they ended up, but I admired their resolve.
How much do you pay back to the bank with a typical mortgage?
Three times? Four times? Likely 4 times.

at the time and how much you can repay much
faster than you are legally required to do.
There is no nice tidy number.
