Brilliant snip of an age article today, "Herd mentality is the fastest way to lose money in property. Let's face it. One of the key reasons why you are currently not able to win a property that you can both love and afford in an area that you want to live in is because too many other people...

despite not being a huge beer fan, I felt pretty bad when my guide in bali, a young 23 yr old chap with a new born a few years ago, said he liked the local stuff, but hadnt tried beer before because he couldnt afford it, never knew of a country where beer was a luxury, here its like 1.30...
