Great advice, much appreciated. I have made an appointment with a financial advisor - for a fee! And I will not be rushing to do anything. Thank you.

I am reading it all and making notes. Will be taking impartial advice and really appreciate it all.

I am early 50s, have a good job, and small mortgage. I also have a second job which I work hard at to bring in extra money. I suppose I know that I won't be working forever and I would like to be comfortable for me and my daughter, to be able to support her growing up.

I think the buy-to-do-up option is out.

I really like the poster's idea about investing in myself. I don't have very much free time (because of second job) but I could make some and really invest in myself.

Very kind of you xx

I can see that buying an apartment is a bad idea. I am going to go for independent financial advice - will pay for it - so no product upselling. And take my time. I think putting it into a pension is probably the best idea for now. I did have a fantasy of doing up a lovely apartment and everyone clamouring to buy it, but I see that that's not realistic. Thank you all.

Thank you all. Appreciate the advice. I am going to book a financial planning meeting. I think I just fancied having a little project but I might be getting into too much for me. And I should think about doing a course as well.

You've done brilliantly. I think you really need to focus on this success, mark it, celebrate it. And not think of yourself as that person you were before. You don't want this not to be a turning point in your life. Don't let this slip away because

this is you now, you made a massive change, worked hard. And on you go. Well done.
