    @Amy_Jane

    In retrospect i think it might be both.

    Take a look at this Change needed to help half a million younger people with Lifetime ISAs as many risk lock-out and £1,000+ in fines to get their money back (moneysavingexpert.com)

    Sounds like Martin Lewis is as crazy as me (talking about the government and using words like "Fairness" and "mis-selling" [though i used the word mis-leading to describe the government).
    Nonetheless, sounds like Martin wants his cake and to eat it too. He sounds like a moaner (just like how Ive been portrayed).

    In fairness to the government the LISA was not solely about houses/housing, they did say "You can use a Lifetime ISA (Individual Savings Account) to buy your first home or save for later life. You must be 18 or over but under 40 to open a Lifetime ISA".
    Lifetime ISA - GOV.UK (www.gov.uk)
    Sounds like the government are a bunch of noble people, helping citizens save for their future AND giving them 25% free money (Citizens could be £000's and £000's better off all due to a caring and righteous government). 

    I'm sure the good folk who have posted on this thread will soon put Martin in his place.......... the government mis-selling and not being fair........... come-on Martin, pull the other one!!!!   ha ha ha 

    Amy_Jane what an inspiration you have been to me. i'm going to write a satire TV show immediately, sell it to the BBC and then to other countries around the world; aswell as writing my memoir and publishing that later in life (double bubble). Obviously i'm going to set up an offshore company and pay no tax and obviously your not going to get anything, not even a mention (i have a reputation to upkeep, that of someone who is entitled, arrogant and greedy). 

    All i need is more people to feed this thread and i'm going to be a millionaire............ a millionaire i tell you!!!!!

    Feed the beast people.............. feed me!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
