    You could double your money in a year of Matched Betting as described in the particular forum on this site and then buy 2 of whatever you can buy with 50k. I don't think I'm giving you the answer you want somehow.

    I've always MEANT to get round to investigating that. It's something you really have to start slow and and build up ... and understand ... and not over-stretch or make mistakes in haste at isn't it!

    Yeh, it sounds like something to be ashamed of but once you can get past that and understand what to do, you can quite easily make an additional income of thousands of pounds per year and that's starting off with as little as £100. Plus, a lot of the people doing it on the board help people enormously (like myself of course) for free!

    Not the best area by reputation but they have sold off alot of land to private developers so it is not as bad as once was

    http://www.tspc.co.uk/x88351-3-bedroom-Flat-for-sale-in-Dunbar-Park-Dundee--DD4-0LX

    You could easy rent that out to a familly cause there is huge waiting lists for council housing here.

    Think i would probably get a boob job, lipo on thighs and a mazda rx8 ;)

    you know lilac ive come to the conclusion that its the best idea yet lol, <well only one>but if i keep all reciepts and give it to housing benefit when its all run out can they really deny me? i mean 17/18 k will be going on keeping us alive!because if they turned me down well.. id be 200 a week short on rent as i could never earn enough than i do already to cover that, and then homeless,

    I think for HB once its gone its gone. I suppose technically you could split it 3 ways and popit in accounts for kids don't think HB can then conside it to be yours KWIM. I know tax credits certainy won't with the interest anyway
