You ' ll be alright . The queue lines are designed to keep things calm and organized . And just remember , the event doesn ' t last all night . <| sep |> You ' re right , it was time I finally bought a Hue ! Ordered ! 3 <| sep |> it also works in reverse , if you unfavorite a pokemon and then evolve it it will be refavorited . <| sep |> House prices will always go up long term in the same way the stock market does . 2 core fundamental monetary reasons 1 . Inflation 2 . Quantitative Easing Inflation is just inherient in the way our monetary system works , a today is almost guaranteed to be worth less in the future right now about 2 % less a year in the mid 70 ' s ~ 1020 % a year . The value ' decreases ' but the value of the item you are buying in real terms stays the same and so the price ' increases '. This is how older people claim to have bought their house for 1000 , it sounds like trivial money today but since a was worth way more then in buying power it was actually a lot more than it is today in real value terms . In the old days inflation wasn ' t the worst thing it basically eroded away any debt you had such as mortgage , providing you could afford the interest rate payments and usually came with a few pay rises a year to keep up with that amount . Today however in the world of ' pay freezes ' lacklustre pay rises wage growth has not kept up with inflation and thus everything including housing has become ' more expensive '. Quantitative Easing is a method that for a long time Pre 2008 inc governments have used to essentially ' print ' free money to boost the economy this is usually given to banks in the hope they lend it out , in the standard economic model it ' s lending and credit that drives the economy forward and promotes growth . In reality a lot of this just ends up boosting asset prices as people can now borrow money far cheaper and usually at higher quantities than before and thus stretch them further to get the things they want e . g . House . There are also a lot of other factors currently in play as to why house prices are as high as they are right now , such as lack of housing , a large demand to buy due to generation rent , a lot of foreign money coming into property as a safe haven and other things . House prices ' may ' be overpriced right now but then overall long term trend is likely to be up . Three things that would reverse the price trend 1 . A Significant Interest Rate Rise 2 . A ban on foreign buyers 3 . Building a huge number of affordable homesThese 3 right now seem unlikely as the government seems to be determined to prevent asset prices like housing from fallingAs someone in their mid 20 ' s the best thing you can do to try to get on the housing ladder by 2020 is obviously save as much as possible but also try to ensure that your money rises with inflation house price rise through assets investments of certain categories . This way even if house prices go up your money should go up to match . One positive thing with the low interest rates is that you will be able to borrow money cheaply to fill the gap .
