  • Is this only for 1 savings account or can it be across all accounts?

    I also have a Help-to-buy isa , saving for wedding and emergency fund. Am I allowed to count all of those during this challenge

    Hi SF!

    I previously stopped saving as my target was reached.. got a mortgage on a property etc but I had to walk away due to the dreaded JK! Back to saving for me.
    Please can you add me to the list! I will aim to save 8k :D

    I am not able to access the spreadsheet either - assuming it is a board wide problem that needs something fiddling somewhere?

    Anyway, I have kicked the new year off with a £700 deposit into my ISA. I'll be investing money there into stocks and shares, so the value will fluctuate over the year, but to keep things simple, I'll put down the actual value of my portfolio on any given day that I pay something in. As it stands currently:

    Challenge number ???
    £700 / £6000

    I'm going to need to try and front load my efforts as the back end of this year is going to be expensive. Hopefully the tailwinds continue and my investments see a good return.

    As with others, I save a fair bit into a work scheme pension, but I'm not counting this as savings as it isn't money I can physically access tomorrow if I needed to. Anyway, good to get the ball rolling as it were.
