Also structured notes.
Nawt on the premium bonds this month.

The Ethereum is up about 50% since February though. I'm selling mine now, I'm not hanging on for the BC halving.
The Bald Beast (who seems to have an excellent handle on such things) says now is the time to go meme coin. I've opted for Dogecoin; surely the gold standard of the memes.
The bond markets are tanking!

Ok, not tanking but they're not where they were last year. I could easily get well over 6% then. Now I'm struggling to get 5 [retches uncontrollably].

I'm half considering property but will see what the upcoming budget brings.

£25. Funny how I never won anything when i had withdrawn some, but now its back upv to the limit I get a prize again. Looks like its only worth having money in if its to the limit? Are you regular winners maxed out in theree?

I am, but you can go on the winner's page somewhere and it tells you folks holdings. I've seen big winner's with £100, but ye, more raffle tickets more wins.

For want of something better to do I've popped some money back into Premium Bonds. They were significantly under performing last time, I'll give it 6 months before deciding whether or not to keep them.
