After nothing in December on a full £50K holding, and a 2.80% return for 2023, I have started the new year with a £700 win (1 x £500; 2 x £100).
My biggest win to date and a great start to the new year, the only thing is I am not sure if I should tell the wife or not.3 -
Can't understand why anybody would publish a win, particularly one of that size, on social media. It's asking for potential trouble. Just illustrates that social media has become such a way of life for many people that nobody recognises the dangers any more.annabanana82 said:I've just seen on a Facebook group I'm on someone won £100,050 this month.

They said they'd posted under a pseudonym, I'm happy to post my holdings and winnings anonymously on here, but would never advertise publicly the range if savings we have.Primrose said:
