#1 £500 added to my savings account to round it up to the next thousand from our DB pensions this month. £1304.10 total for April for now and over £20k in total for this year so far. Some will come out later on this year though.
DH due to receive the last few thousand of his SIPP in the next few weeks now we are in the next tax year so that pot is now emptied as his state pension pays out this year so we getting it out before his tax rate goes into higher rate so we may put some of that away although some has been earmarked for things.
Some good updates from everyone. We are away next week so will catch up next weekend.I’m a Forum Ambassador and I support the Forum Team on the Debt free Wannabe, Budgeting and Banking and Savings and Investment boards.

Expensive month next month as car service & tax both due, aswell as a couple of other things so all surplus will be going towards softening that blow for the rest of this month. 😊#39 - Save £12k in 20253 -
