    OP doesn't say he needs to live off the money - all he says is he wants a holiday in Thailand and Bali, which he can easily afford already.

    Oh, I read that as the OP wanting 4 months in Thailand and 6 months in Bali each year, more than a holiday, surely? Although I guess if the cost of living over there is lower than here, perhaps easier to make the income stretch.

    Oh, not sure now. Well the answer would be that he can't live over the income from £75k, regardless of how he invests it!
  • P2P lending secured against property with 12% from Savingstream or 12% to 13.5% from Moneything secured against various assets but no FSCS protection with P2P and should not put all your eggs in one basket and certainly not 100% of available investments in P2P.
