Hope everyone is dripping in as this continues to fall.

Dave #rr going to be a little bit more up on Monday

Yes also invest in energy, maybe not green

I think our R5 is genuinely fun. Downside is that the range isn't sufficient to drive to the Elan Valley and back so I won't take it out for a fun day's driving.


Im not up to speed and didn't realise you're the R5. One of the lads got one for his Mrs (himself) and loves it. Look great too ...

Seems to be jitters about AI at the moment. Is this a massively over hyped area? Watching FedEx robots packing is amazing and their stock up huge amounts on the back of it. Interesting times.

Test drove an all4 countryman today with 300bhp. Pretty rapid but what's the point when you are driving frugally.

Ordered a monochrome in black that arrives in May.


Keeping the Boxster though I trust…?


Provisionally sold our mini, boxster staying for the 6 days of sunny weather. 😀 Ev cars ...

It's a good opportunity to make money as I've previously said. Buy small amounts consistently at times like these and you can't lose. 2 to 3 years you'll be going hell Broccers was right, again. Well maybe not

Well i’m glad you have some standards.

That’s how i feel about proof of work crypto - it’s disgusting to promote such a pointless waste of resource.


Tell us about what your pensions invested in. You probably have no idea but like to think you're whiter than white.
Thats a fair comment ...

You don’t consider ethics at all? in any investments?!

If someone came to you with a solid investment plan in a company you knew used sweatshops using child slaves (A few kids die here and there, but great returns!) you’d be ok with that?


Thinking about it I refuse to buy British American ...

I'll be back to update you all about investing soon. For now thow do drip into crypto as every day it's down you're making more money.

These losers are trying to wind us up. Jobbo sold his bank shares at less than 50 percent where they are now. I'll not take any advice from these people.


I only had a couple of grand of LLOY and I sold at 100% profit, a lot higher than 57p or whatever you’re suggesting. My substantive ...

RR shares did well as there was a risk of war.

Chinese sweatshops are all over, iPhone factory with suicide nets.

Lithium iron batteries in most things we own.

I saw a load of dead locals killed due to arsenic lakes used in the mining of gold.

Bangladesh horrific conditions making most of ...

Ethical investments. Well each to their own, I focus on making money.

What are you on about?

I'm buying, this is how to make money in crypto. When everyone is crying you buy.

Dave!

Bitcoin is down 17% and Ethereum is down 29% in the two weeks since Dave posted that...

Time to buy Jobbo!

Re benefits. When something happens to us normal folk and work isn't possible for say 6 months due to severe illness, you get sweet f a help.

Getting back to the topic in hand which was essentially money. I honestly do feel sorry for the yoof of today. But saying this their parents could encourage them to be savvy and understand compound interest.


I blame school. Maths would have been a lot more interesting and useful if we had ...

A bit of a surprise as the Reeves effect hasn't hit any of my shares yet, I'm waiting for it but I've hit a bit of a personal milestone today and wonder what I'm missing 😂

Dave!


💪👍

I actually think the encouragement of investing in a&s ISA is a good thing. Unfortunately education is lacking ...
