Actually she is right, particularly for young people. Not everyone is a high earner, or has a rich relative to help them out. I think it is ridiculous to mock her, or put in this ugly twitter
piece for just stating what is a fact of life for a lot of young people.

Tell that to people with a portfolio of properties.

As ambitions go, getting a mortgage is up there with "having kids" and "getting married." It is just a normal part of life.

And to think that "getting a mortgage" compares with Marc getting a university education and becoming a scientist, is laughable.

Everyone wants different things. I don't see anything wrong in that.

Then she should respect his education and stop trying to compare her completely normal achievement with his actually quite impressive one.

If it's someone's choice I don't see it as quantifiable.

This is such a patronising post. Working hard to get and pay for a mortgage is a great achievement, good on her. I know plenty of young people with a university degree that can't get jobs or a mortgage.

Nevermind the mortgage, what really bothered me was when Chloe tried to talk to Marc about an education & Marc would not engage her.
She went into the bedroom & Aisleyne followed her inside & they seemed to be of the opinion that an education is unimportant.
John quickly told them they are being hysterical.

Honestly, with how things are today, having a mortgage at her age IS a fantastic achievement. Hell even having a job is an achievement.

It really isn't.

Anyone with a stable job and a deposit can get a mortgage and I doubt she got the deposit herself. I reckon daddy paid for it.

A real achievement is going to college for years and becoming a scientist.

Her dads in prison isn't he,isn't he a gangster?
Her father Edwin Wilburn, 46, below, was jailed for masterminding a £300k plot to flood South Yorkshire with deadly amphetamines.

An insider revealed Chloe, from Doncaster, opened up about the gangster at her final audition for the Channel 5 show.

I have a mortgage Im so happy im special.

Except when I consider that actually all that means is that I owe a faceless bank an amount of money it will take me most of my life to pay off it doesnt seem that special.

Frightening isn't it. People think that being a debt slave is an achievement.
