Re: premium bonds.
I've got £8k I took out of the PBs split between two 7.5% (ish) easy access saving accounts that paid £22.97 each last month.
I've still got £14k in the PBs that have only won twice (£125) this year.
I'm trying really hard not to take it all out and buy a Norton.

Re: premium bonds.
The prize checker app told me results not available yet? Not expecting much as I've lent someone a chunk of my stake.

Re: premium bonds.
Wasn't worth the wait to find out it was zilch. I was kinda expecting a lesser result for the aforementioned reasons though, so no biggie.

The Bald Beast (who seems to have an excellent handle on such things) says now is the time to go meme coin.

Also structured notes.
The Ethereum is up about 50% since February though. I'm selling mine now, I'm not hanging on for the BC halving.

Have you considered Peer to Peer lending ?Potter wrote: ↑Tue Jul 02, 2024 11:46 am Me and the boy won nothing, Mrs Potter £250.
My lad has got the right hump, he's got the max in there and he's had a really bad few months.
Our eldest took it all out and put it in some sort of monthly interest account and she gets a decent (5% IIRC) every month paid into her current account.
7% readily available, some deals up as far as 11%

Re: premium bonds.
You can even get an ISA which allows the money to be used for P2P.
