Quick q on P.B's

I know what most thoughts are on here but here's my question
Both me and the ball and chain have seperate bank accounts and we ain't married yet, I am going to receive 100k in the very near future and want to purchase some bonds for around a year. Can I also transfer some of my capital to her to purchase P.B's as well

    Yes you can although she will of course become the legal owner.

    Meaning that if the ball and chain suddenly becomes free she'll be able to do whatever she likes with them and you won't have any say in the matter.

    Don't know if you're aware, but there's a limit of £30K each.
    There was a recent thread on this forum about the merits (and otherwise) of PBs.
