Default Going round B&Q

IMLE the under forties are not great DIY'ers, i believe the latest
acronym is DIFM (do it for me).

From what i can see, under 40's get their dad's and mom's to do it for
them, as with much of the rest of their lives, e.g university funding,
housing deposits and more (the bank of mum and dad and all that).


Average first time buyer age is now 37. Rental properties typically don't
allow you to DIY, can kick you out with 2 months notice, or use your DIY as
a reason to raise the rent.
