Decent annuity rate?

Regarding "guarantee period". When I did my calculations, I found that not having a guarantee period and buying fixed term life assurance was a better deal. Something to consider.

Hmmm - now that's a neat idea I had not thought of. Certainly worth a calculation.

What utter tosh. I didn't disingenuously "add things later" - if you read the posts chronologically, there were plenty of replies that managed to actually read the content and subsequently respond to it. Any minor edits to posts were due to bad typing on my part (common) or to add an extra minor piece of information.

I may have only recently joined this particular forum but have been using online forums for over 15 years and am a senior member on another forum. I know what you are referring to and I didn't do that - I've got a bit more integrity than that.

When I said I added information I didn't mean I went back and added new information to an existing post to intentionally "cheat" (are you for real???) I meant I added information via new posts as the story developed. That's how forum threads normally work (that's why it's called a "thread")

Dunstonh simply was so intent on picking out bits to argue with and assuming I was a clueless numpty that he wasn't reading carefully enough to notice importaan details. And despite repeated requests to just give me an answer to my original question, he just kept writing patronising, condescending replies.

You are a newbie here! We're all used to it!
