More WIRE than FIRE, simplifying, saving and savvy spending
HI :) I've been around the boards for years - I learn so much from other MSE-ers and find having a diary truly helps me keep track of what I'm doing £££-wise! However, I neglected my last diary and life has moved on since then, so it seems sensible to start over. My overall goal has been to retire early (FIRE - Financial…

BBC iPlayer, ITVX, Ch4 and Ch5 all require me to authorise by signing in on my laptop every time I want to watch. This lasts for a day but the next day I need to authorise again. It sounds like the…

Hi. A friend of mine has just come out of a messy divorce and is looking to buy a share in a new build shared ownership house.

The triple lock is based on the "Average Earnings Growth" figure for July 2025 (released in August 2025) and the CPI for September 2025.
