£150 for me this month (1x £50, 1x £100). I’m happy enough with this month seeing that the prize pot being nerfed recently. Holding just under 43.5KMy grand total for 2024 is £1,375 which is slightly below the expected average return. I guess that’s okay because it could of been a lot worse.Save £12,000 in 2024: £17,500 out of £12,000.Save £12,000 in 2025: £0 out of £12,000.1
