Having recently bought our first interstate IP, hubby and I were commenting to a close family member that we would have to pull the belt in a bit as it is quite negatively geared (but with what we hope is significant potential for growth).
After a few drinks, her comments amounted to - 'well I wouldn't do it cause I like to live my life now.'
I had to bite my tongue - I know it was jealously speaking - but we were basically told that we would have no life. Trying to put us down was her way of making herself feel better.
I have found that we have great conversations with our friends who have also bought IP's, but best not to even mention it to those that havn't.
