I second "A vote against allowing "plus other half" to their own holdings"
I think segregating the two would be best, but that's just me.I choose the rooms that I live in with care,
The windows are small and the walls almost bare,
There's only one bed and there's only one prayer;
I listen all night for your step on the stair.4 -

Sadly despite the hard work that Bobblehat has put into this thread, it diverging into a discussion more about how it is run, rather than a bit of fun that the OP asked a question about.You could carve the rules up how ever you like, some one would be unhappy, I am silencing any political comment I could add.For myself I invest some time every day, reading this thread, and Brid's other threads, sometime many pages, if you don't look for a 1/2 day, a couple of mins boosting Nwest RS Top Ups, and then an hour or so at month, trying to maximise my & OH's return on IA savings by transferring money between accounts Being of a certain age I class that as FUN!I honestly don't know where this thread should go now, I have & still do enjoy following it, and hope it continues.I just wanted to Share my thoughts, for what they're worth5

Some kind of separation of "couples" accounts would be good. Maybe the overall ranking should be on individual accounts only, then another column added for additional partner accounts.
Not knocking anyone who's doing the admin for two people's accounts, but by opening accounts for their husband/wife/partner they automatically have double the number of accounts available to them, and possibly the odd joint account too. You can get yourself into double figures just with accounts earning 7% or more!
Anyway, it's all a bit of fun
Talking of fun.... I've had a fun evening adding macros to my regular saver spreadsheet. For no good reason whatsoever other than for the fun of it.2 -
Yes I feel that would workBobblehat said:

As someone who has included my DW regular savers, I am happy to withdraw from the list.
Thanks Bobblehat for all your hard work. I will continue to follow your updates.

I’ve included my hubby’s with mine but I’m happy to still be involved and have two columns, maybe I could include only mine in one, and mine and hubby’s combined in the other 🤷🏼♀️.

After opening five new accounts this month, I'm now up to 30.1
