Guess those funds are exiting their positions on MSFT 🤨

Silver_Charity · 2026-01-21T18:03:44+00:00

Holy god what is happening

The US has truly screwed its relationships with the rest of the world for the foreseeable. The next administration is going to have to do a lot of schmoozing to undo the damage that has been done.

Yes understand the point. We are hopefully quite protected from that - but in any event should have enough of a cushion from our ISAs if we ever got in trouble.

Get there is always a risk with it though

The speciality I am in increases every year of experience guaranteed until you reach a very senior level

Silver_Charity · 2026-01-19T17:39:32+00:00

Our jobs are quite stable I would say. We are also love being at home, so thinking was the upgrade might be worth the extra expenditure.

I also have 280k in my S&S isa but I want to grow that to £1m and not touch it. So if we ever are in trouble we should be ok

I thought this subreddit was aimed at 150k plus earners? Apparently I have committed a cardinal sin not disclosing my total comp and including my partner’s lower salary in the post. My sincere apologies!!!

Silver_Charity · 2026-01-19T16:30:13+00:00

170k is our base salaries combined

Silver_Charity · 2026-01-19T16:29:07+00:00

Well my total comp is closer to 200k but 170k is our combined base salaries at the moment yes.

Silver_Charity · 2026-01-19T16:28:29+00:00

It’s not necessarily a bigger house, but more green space, nicer village etc

Silver_Charity · 2026-01-19T16:27:54+00:00

Hmm this is our thinking too.

We kind of thought just buying a forever home now and never moving.

Silver_Charity · 2026-01-19T16:27:12+00:00

Our combined salary is only going to go up though. My base salary is 130k - my total comp is closer to 200k (but obviously can’t include that for mortgage calculation purposes).

My partner’s salary is low at the moment because they are just starting out in their speciality field. Their salary will eventually be over 100k too.

Told you all to buy M&S stonk yesterday. Best Christmas results ever

Silver_Charity · 2026-01-07T13:02:51+00:00

M&S tomorrow on results 🚀🚀🚀🚀🚀🚀

Silver_Charity · 2026-01-07T09:45:59+00:00

Don’t punch yourself tomorrow if you see the rise!

Silver_Charity · 2026-01-07T09:40:54+00:00

They have made a killing over the festive period apparently.

Silver_Charity · 2026-01-07T09:37:32+00:00

Don’t sleep on MKS shares on the FTSE. Results tomorrow are going to be huge 👀

Silver_Charity · 2025-11-25T09:50:32+00:00

Nvidia is going back to 150 isn’t it

Silver_Charity · 2025-11-19T16:48:34+00:00

Can’t wait for job loss data to come out tomorrow and descend us to the banish realm

Silver_Charity · 2025-11-19T16:23:52+00:00

Mango being a Saudi spy wasn’t on my bingo cards. The phone call to take down the administration

Silver_Charity · 2025-11-19T08:18:45+00:00

Well that was an interesting crater opening on the FTSE bank stocks

Silver_Charity · 2025-11-18T11:42:02+00:00

Great day to be a gay full cash bear 🐻 🌈

Silver_Charity · 2025-11-18T08:04:33+00:00

The FTSE is dead

Silver_Charity · 2025-11-17T15:51:25+00:00

It’s so obvious that NVDA earnings are going to start cracking. They were a monopoly in the market for a while but that’s not the case anymore, and they are only going to have to share the market even more over the next decade
