How do I find people with similar interests/aspirations in property/investment, so that I don't feel I am boring my friends every time I bring the subject up?
Some of them have houses, some of them don't. Many of them have commitments I don't (families/kids). I'm just me, looking out for me, with fairly minimal overheads. I'm hopeful that my boyfriend will sort himself out a deposit in the near future and we can consider buying together, but living together will probably come first

I'm a pretty frugal person, though my expenditure has increased significantly in the past year as I moved cities for a job with much better carer development, and much better pay. I'm very good at saving even if I don't have a specific goal, but I'd also like to have something to work towards so I get the 'reward' of achieving (as opposed to watching the 000s tick over). I feel like a bit of an oddity in terms of my approach and desire to add to my portfolio.
