I read an article yesterday about the Wilsons, a couple from Kent who
>have amassed a portfolio of 500 houses worth £75 million over the last
>twenty years and will be listed in this years Rich List.

>Apparently they get hundreds of letters each week asking them for
>master-classes for the secret of their success. They said they buy one
>house a week on the following basis:

>1) Interest-only mortgages
>2) Research their location (their particular fortune was based in the
>early years on the fact that the houses they bought shot up in value
>after the proposed channel tunnel to France was approved and completed
>near their properties)
>3) Re-finance
>4) Repeat

My question is who has actually paid for these houses ? was it these parasites or other workers ?
