Garden Route Middle Class

[michaelchamberslee]

Hi PersonalFinanceZA. Is it just me or are house prices absolutely ridiculous in George and surrounding areas. It’s seems like all the semigrationists have made house prices skyrocket. I don’t earn a bad salary 500k pm, and yet I can’t afford to buy a house. Which brings me to my next question. What advice would you be able to give me to get a good ROI on investments. I have 128k in Allan Gray Unit trust. 100k savings spread in 3 accounts in my FNB accounts ~8%. Have also recently started with a TFSA in Easy Equities. Mostly in S&P 500 and Nasdaq

@michaelchamberslee TF you earn half a mil a month and you’re saying it’s not bad? Why do you have so little savings?
And yes the prices in George is ridiculous
