Premium Bonds

I bought ONE premium bond in 1964 and have won NOTHING.
The strangest thing, to me at least, is that I had to give it to my OR when I was declared bankrupt.
Perhaps they know something I don't.I am NOT, nor do I profess to be, a Qualified Debt Adviser. I have made MANY mistakes and have OFTEN been the unwitting victim of the the shamefull tactics of the Financial Industry.
If any of my experiences, or the knowledge that I have gained from those experiences, can help anyone who finds themselves in similar circumstances, then my experiences have not been in vain.

Imagine someone holding forth on biology whose only knowledge of the subject is the Book of British Birds, and you have a rough idea of what it feels like to read Richard Dawkins on theology: Terry Eagleton0 -
Yay! well done you! I'm buying £100 for my son for Christmas as he doesn't want presents (bless him - he knows I'm in a £ pickle) - but early next year he'll be wanting to learn to drive. I know if I put it into a high interest account it'll earn a tiny bit of interest - but it won't be in it for long, and at least this way I know I've given him a bit towards it.
