So, it's March next week - I can't quite believe it! But it's true!Very little new to report from me (if anyone has ANYTHING exciting to report, I would dearly like to hear it!).Most interesting thing happening is I have suddenly become very focussed on my future financial health. Considerations, research, ideas, plans and thoughts a-plenty on my pension, S&S ISAs and generaly money. Kinda wish I had done this a LONG time ago, but I could never get my head round it. Head is still spinning, but a clear plan is developing.Phase 1 is to increase my pension contribution by 2%. This becomes effective in my March wage.Phase 2 is to continue to put money into PB each month until I get £10K.Phase 3 is to reduce my PB payment each month and divert some into a S&S ISA. The plan (hope) here is that this little investment will perform well and give me a better return than PB's. I know there is a risk, but left for long enough I think everything would even itself out.And that is pretty much me for now.Hope you are all enjoying some more springlike weather?
