It's random lol, don't move them around. Just look at some of the March winners in ascending order of holding

Years ago my wife won £5000 with a relatively new PB holding of about £2000. I suggested that she should probably cut and run because she had clearly used up her PB luck. She didn't and she continues to be very slightly luckier than me on a per bond basis. It's so unfair.1 -

Have you thought about ditching your current husband and finding one less lucky? That way, you'll win more often than him."Real knowledge is to know the extent of one's ignorance" - Confucius6

If you both have the same number of bonds, then over a long period any 'luck' will even out .0
