how low will rates go in this race to the bottom?
 

Surely they can't go much lower?  It really makes me wonder what is the point of saving?  What are we supposed to do to get a reasonable return on the savings we were encouraged to put aside?

The NS&I rate is political so that aside rates will be down to at least 0.50% by the autumn.

The main point now about saving is so people do not run out of money. It is no longer about the returns.

Interesting that the word d i c k is seemingly deemed worthy of censoring if used within posts but is apparently considered OK within a user name, as it's shown unaltered in the original post!  Seems like a bit of a !!!!-up to me....

Depends on context. If you are trying to make a fortune selling your cat Richard then its fine. But if you are refering to a head extension then No.
