This is pissing me off!!! [cursing]

Ive been with my girlfriend for quite some time, but we both still live at home with her parents. We decided before Christmas that in the new year we would look to get a place of our own...

Weve been looking to buy a house in our area (Shropshire) and got a few guide prices... Were looking around the £100,000 mark for our first house, and priced up a mortgage... OH MY GOD!!! For a £100k mortgage (with 10k deposit), were looking to pay back over £80k in interest alone! OUTRAGEOUS!!!

This really pisses me off, as a 16 year old girl can get pregnant, have a baby and then claim a free council house.... free of charge!!! Us on the other hand, were both 22, not looking to have kids for a few years, and have to get in a shed load of debt for this.

Its just not right!!! We aint having a kid for the sake of getting a house, we dont believe leaching money from the state.... Its completely unfair.


Is there any other help for a first time buyer... can we get some support, grants, funding or help towards a home?? For earning a living, and planing to have a family later in life, we get shafted [help]

/Rant over....
