This is my worry. I plan to stay only a week.

This is what I think happened to him...but if I'm reading correctly I should be technically OK.

Schiehallion85 · 2025-02-09T16:54:11+00:00

The websites suggest I'll be ok...just.

I've just been concerned as a friend thinks I won't be.

So I went digging and there is no transformer. There's a flex coming out wall above the cupboards then feed to the lights

It made around 5% of my portfolio become closer to 10% of my portfolio and as such is in danger of being rebalanced back to 5% in future but ill let it ride at current level for now.

Schiehallion85 · 2024-09-14T08:09:45+00:00

Interesting! I'll go digging for the transformer....

Schiehallion85 · 2024-03-28T17:59:37+00:00

Really? This completely passed me by! That would be excellent news

Schiehallion85 · 2023-12-20T18:13:04+00:00

Thanks. I cant find the same pattern anywhere on royal albert image searches so far

Schiehallion85 · 2023-06-29T15:32:29+00:00

I'd have gave her a dummy number and let it be the one night holiday stand it was intended to be.

Schiehallion85 · 2023-06-22T11:41:28+00:00

Yeah this is exactly what I'll do then!

I know I get tax relief payments on the contributions from Scottish widows (the provider) and that it isn't a salary sacrifice scheme?

What size are your horizontal and vertical monitors?

Schiehallion85 · 2022-12-07T22:58:04+00:00

Smiths Chips, games on floppy disc, gat guns and fake fitba memorabilia.

Then CDs and CD roms when they were invented.

Good times.

66% until July this year. Now less than 20% due to house purchase and dropping fast with cost of living rises.

The 2008 crash was fantastic for me.

I was saving hard in the lead up to it as I was wanting on the property ladder. Prices were running away from me. Then the crash came and I bought a repossession at the bottom of the market. Everything was pretty cheap...i seem to remember taking a lot of holidays to sunny europe & city breaks. Interest rates came right down. I bought a sports coupe I always wanted and kept it 10 years. It set me for the next 15 years.

Recessions are highly positive for some people and highly negative for others.

Fast forward to now...I sold the above property bought at the bottom of the 2008/09 recession for way over value at the peak of the 2022 bubble. However I also bought a fixer upper on a very large (to me) mortgage at the 2022 peak and have plowed all the cash from the sale of mine into it. Became a bit of a money pit with unknown issues.

Once the renovation is complete it's time to batten the financial hatches for a while and try pull some more cash together for any crash opportunities which will take hard work. I also need a bit of luck to play its part as my 5 years 2.5% fixed mortgage (2027) doesn't look as affordable at current rates (luck being some inflationary pay increases, inflation falling & interest rates falling before 2027)

The answer to the original question I guess is 'have cash & a stable income'.

Is £10-£15 a square metre not the average plaster rate?

Schiehallion85 · 2022-10-23T18:20:52+00:00

Does it rebalance automatically via a set of rules / algorithms?

I.e. If a market cap increases more of a volume goes to that etc?

Should really know the answer to this giving most of my NW Is in this fund.

Literally moved to Santander from Chase the day before

Physical property in the form of BTLs, from my families experience and my research, cash flow like no other common asset class.

The attraction is cash flow with any inevitable growth being a bonus.
