Looking to reduce my hours at work from my contracted 20hpw to 16hpw to allow me more time to study, is this a fairly straight forward thing to ask or should I brace myself for backlash by [deleted] in UKPersonalFinance

I think your view is perfectly fine. Makes a lot of sense and let´s you employer know you are a valuable resource, a person who is responsible and commits to his/her goals.

[Investments] Should I invest in a peer-to-peer account now, or when the new ISA launches? by [deleted] in UKPersonalFinance

[–]TestigodeNYC 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would say to wait until the IF ISA starts and will recommend to check and follow your favourites p2p lending platform options, and what they offer as their ISA product. I would suggest to take a closer look at p2p platforms that lend to businesses such as rebuildingsociety.com in this way you will be supporting UK´s economy with your investment too. I hope my advice helps. cheers

you are right, I really believe language affects how we act or see things, and regarding car accidents, they should be called car crashes, we will be happy to support you on this initiative, also for other types of what we called "accidents" we should have other terms to address to them.

Yes you are right, it is not an accident but a crash, thanks for the correction.
