What about the guys who have got their own houses? they are potentially in a far worse situation, they now own houses that are probably worth much less than they paid for them with little prospect of being able to sell or rent them out! they could be forced to sell for a much reduced price or forced to leave their families behind whilst they "possibly" get a new job down south somewhere.
Being young and not on the housing market could be the best pot to be in at Kinloss right now, so in a nut shell stop feeling sorry for yourself and start plotting your escape if there are any!
