How much does it have to drop for me to be better off? The recent drops have put that in the shadows. I'm also fully invested in premium bonds, so you never know!
I know you feel certain things are going to work out for you and I hope you're right. It will be good for the country. My dog in this fight is likely a small increase v potentially pouncing if there is volatility.

Do you think if I saved 5%, I may be better off? Do you see that as an ambitious target?
Seems I'm getting a bit of a kicking here - is no-one else supporting my stance?0
