Is there anybody out there feeling a bit low about going due to the fact they don't have trillions of pounds to take and 'heaven forbid', may have to have a mortgage at some stage ;)

We had to put up the $100k bond so by the time we got off the plane and got our passports stamped, we had about $11k in the bank. Bothered me a bit at the time but here we are, seven months later doing allright :)

I know what you mean though. I laugh when I read threads like "We're only taking $250k with us. Will we have a decent lifestyle?" :rolleyes:
