Just used my full ISA allowance

I've just used up my full ISA allowance, when you get to a largish portfolio, it's meaningless to buy in anything less than £10k in my case because it would be such a small single digit percentage of my total sum. So i only invested in two equities.

I'm sure many of you have the same problem. Makes drip feeding a complete waste of time.

    I just filled my car fuel tank up. When you drive as much as I do it makes filling anything less than a full tank a complete waste of time.

    I just brushed my teeth. When you have as many teeth as I do it's a waste of time doing them individually as they are each single digit percentages of my entire mouth.

    I've just bought another double wardrobe...... when one's wife has as many clothes and shoes as mine does, it's pointless buying a anything less than a double wardrobe at any one time as it would be a complete waste of time.......

    I!!!8217;ve just stocked up on loo roll. When one has a thing for spicy food, it!!!8217;s pointless buying anything less than a 16-pack as it would be a waste of time!

    I've just read the OP thousands of times, non-stop, for hours on end because reading it just once would only take up a tiny fraction of my time.

    Good luck finding them - I just stole them all. You see my position is special as I own a biscuit factory so stealing anything less would have been a complete waste of my time.

    I am sure other forum members are in a similar position.

    Stealing individual biscuits is meaningless.

    Well maybe not if you are a prole that cannot afford to use your full biscuit allowance as soon as the High Lord of Biscuit Accounting makes it available. But I think many members of this forum have accumulated similar flour based food product wealth and would agree with my Bed & Biscuit approach.

    Beds are the worst place to eat biscuits because of the crumbs.

    Unless it's somebody else's bed.
