    wow, I don't venture to the debt board much where this originated, but it's really a stark contrast to the people on the savings boards. I can't imagine living without a safety net of cash, or a comfortable earnings over my expenses.

    In pure cash I have over £10k to hand (including cash ISA), if I include credit available like cards and overdrafts I have more like £15k.

    Of course I also have liquid investments, so in a real emergency I could get closer to £50k in cash within the week.
    Faith, hope, charity, these three; but the greatest of these is charity.

    I am going to move this thread to savings board as it is not really the place for a thread like this....

    Take it back, not of interest to the Savings & Investments board.
  • Probably about £50 k from savings & investments, and another £15k from credit cards/overdrafts.

    Living for tomorrow might mean that you survive the day after.
    It is always different this time. The only thing that is the same is the outcome.
    Portfolios are like personalities - one that is balanced is usually preferable.

    I have alike 5 CCs with no blance on them and at least one is a 10K cerdit line. I have no idea how much I could borrow if I had to. I know my mtg has a 25K loan facility. I know how much cash I have and have a rough idea of what my investments are worth.
