Where to put 40k?
If I put 40k in a Kent Reliance bond at 2% annual return, I'll only get £800 interest. That is not a lot, less than inflation. How do I get more off the 40K without risking it?

Hello all, Anyone used Evestor or any similar platforms that they could recommend? Money investment will be modest but looking at the Financial Indepedence community, they all scream the need to invest in an index... Thanks in advance, DP

Bitcoin's gone a bit quiet
A 30% plunge in a week, approaching 2008/09 GFC proportions, and not a peep. I wonder how many have been badly burned by buying into the recent hype and are now hoping for a 50% rise just to cover losses. I'm not trying to be inflammatory, just an observation about the recent lack of commentary and threads

Cahoot - great 4.31 rate but very poor website design, not updated (since launch?)
Wonder what your thoughts are, would enjoy counter viewpoints and any thing I didn’t know. I've searched around the forums here with "Cahoot" and not found similar experience. Having been a customer of Cahoot for their good rate on a savings account many years ago, I’ve signed up again for a Cahoot account with the 4.31%…

Anyone have any experience of lulo?
Hi, Does anyone use anything like lulo.fi (its an app on solana that allows you to lend out stablecoins to overcollateralised lending pools for yield). Looking at where to keep cash in an easy access account, and the general bank rates seem so bad compared to what is available onchain. I know there is some risk of hacking…

Selling all my investment and retirement funds to buy silver
Well of course the post title isn't true - apologies for the click-bait. ;-) I listened to an interesting podcast earlier - Rich Dad Radio Show. It's a US based show. I've heard a few before and don't really agree with the host's opinions on investing and finance. However, he does discuss some interesting topics. The…

NatWest Pigs - a good investment ?
Thanks for the great response to my previous post on NatWest pigs - it seems unlikely that high street banks will ever offer savings incentives that match the long term popularity of NatWest pigs. Whilst the value of the original five pigs, Woody, Annabel, Maxwell, Lady Hilary & Sir Nathaniel, has fallen in recent years it…
