    Haha that is very true.. raises your hope when you spend ages trying to find your NS&I logins to only discover that you've once again won £25 and not the £1mil :rotfl:

    I've got NS&I "Have I won" link on my favourites and added the holder number to the link name. So pin my favourites, use the link and the holder's number is visible. I have no idea where my NS&I log-in is! :eek:

    I've had some PBs since late in 2011, and so far my 'winnings' are equivalent to an IR of 0.93%.

    Just unlucky I guess. ;)

    the chances of me winning 5 in any one month are NIL, so the fact there are still 3 x 100k going and 1 x 1m as normal, is good enough for me.
    Plan
    1) Get most competitive Lifetime Mortgage (Done)
    2) Make healthy savings, spend wisely (Doing)
    3) Ensure healthy pension fund - (Doing)
    4) Ensure house is nice, suitable, safe, and located - (Done)
    5) Keep everyone happy, healthy and entertained (Done, Doing, Going to do)
