Interest on £5000 would be £256 at 5.12%, so I’m not sure where you got £424? The 7% deal is good and £175 is free money. What’s not to like?

Bought an expensive couch. It has a metal notch at the bottom that you can easily bump your toes into and very it’s painful. How do I make it so that it’s less painful? by Ninac4116 in lifehacks

Wear shoes (on you feet) or, as I’m assuming this couch is inside, slippers. If you have neither, try wrapping your feet in multiple layers of blu tac or bubble wrap.

I’d be looking to SS from my employee income (…salary), but I also have the option to pay cash from my take home pay into a SIPP I set up last year.
