I’m dreading having to check his poops for the coin.
Told him he’s now worth a whole 5p!
Anyone know what to do?
3 years old boy. Swallowed a 5p coin.
Seems fine now, running around just as bonkers as ever.
Will it just pass through in a day or two?
My wife did call...
S&P500 has done 14% per year over the last 5 years.
Although the vast majority of that has been from the super 7.
Over the last 100 years, nothing has really outperformed the SPX. (Except...
SJP should be ashamed of themselves. They ought to be the next PPI scandal, with the fees they’ve ripped their “customers” off with over the years. Unbelievable that they’ve got away with it for so...
As M1011 said above. Probably best to just leave it in your pension and earn ~14% a year from SPX.
Is there not a big advantage to spreading your 25% tax free part over a number of years? Rather...
The only way to hold BTL or Holiday Lets nowadays is mortgage/debt free or within a limited company structure.
The government is making sure that there isn’t any profit in gearing them up with...
This made me chuckle.

Bitcoin could underpin a perfect utopian society.
It’s still relatively anonymous, but you have to use the blockchain which is entirely public. If people know your crypto address then anyone can see all of your transactions. And because the entire...
The irony is that criminals really don’t use Bitcoin very much for this kind of money laundering when compared to the use of cash, diamonds, gold bars, “Swiss” bank accounts etc. All the...
This is the best line of all. 😂
“The value of the Bitcoin was worth around £2bn at the time of initial estimates - but due to the fluctuation in the currency's value, it has since increased to...
Or Egypt.
Stay in a posh hotel in Gaza or Cairo, then get the train down to Luxor and see the valley of kings etc.
On my bucket list!
If you need inspiration for that trip, watch the...
Check out Side near Antalya in Turkey. Lots of lovely hotels and some great ancient ruins and amphitheaters to visit, plus lots of other historical stuff to go see in a hire car or on tours.
No idea where “Chestertons” got their data from for that article. There’s no real link given, but it’s totally at odds with the data that all the big mainstream market analysts are providing.

Or in my example above, is it the inheritance tax that has been avoided?
Its all ridiculously complicated.
I always assumed a trust was a kind of tax dodge, but it seems in some instances you can end up paying lots of tax via a trust which would be totally avoided if the assets were just gifted 7 years...
Can anyone explain the point of family trusts, if there’s still tax to pay when money/assets are removed from the trust, whereas there’s no tax to pay on the same funds/assets if they’re gifted 7...
There is no stopping Mr Saylor. :biggrin-new:

Raffe was probably short MSTR, short Bitcoin, short miner stocks, expecting it all to go to zero.
Must be rekt now.
Microstrategy up another 25% today. $1350.
Up nearly 100% since I was advised to sell at $700.
I’m sure I’ll end up crying into my tea again, but I very much expect it to keep going all the...
I didn’t say they’re poor, I said above I’d only put 50% into global trackers now, rather than nearly all of it like I used to.
I’ll bet Tesla alone will massively outshine all the trackers put...

For contrast, the S&P500 tracker fund has retuned 80% over 5 years and about 5000% since 2001.

The FTSE trackers are abysmal. I can’t believe I spent 20 years with a good chunk of my SIPP and ISAs in FTSE100 & 250 tracker funds.
The long term returns are a joke. No wonder so many UK...
I did. But that was before I’d spent 3 years studying markets, trading and investing for a few hours a day.
I’ll revert to about 50% boring trackers, for stability, but I’m a reformed active...
