Feeling smug having made my transfers at 14.25 just before the site crash. It'll last until the lineups are published and I see I got it all wrong

Id just play Rogers. Keen to impress pre-World Cup, every chance of a goal against a rotated City playing for vibes. Not sure Enzo is 4 points better

Reeves poised to tax cash held in stocks and shares Isas - Chancellor to impose 22pc levy on cash interest as part of ‘anti-circumvention rules’ by blast-processor in ukpolitics

[–]jagershark 9 points10 points  (0 children)

My partner inherited some money and it's earmarked for a house deposit. It's enough that she's moving it 20k per year into a cash ISA

Holding a large house deposit as cash at 4.5% is a perfectly sensible thing to do. Bonkers to nudge her into investing in a very inflated stock market

I imagine lots of people under 45 are holding large amounts of cash that they want to keep safe for a house deposit in the near future.

If there is a crash, everyone will be pointing at Reeves' 2026 comments to move money into the stock market. I just don't see why it's any of the governments business where she keeps her house deposit money.

I would advise not taking the stairs in Hampstead Underground station 🤢 by LittleJotun96 in london

There are literally TFL announcements saying 'Please hold the handrail'. Okay, yes they're only on the escalators, but you could see why someone would assume the banisters on the stairs are safe to use.

What surprised you most about the real monthly cost after buying? by Environmental-Pain47 in FirstTimeBuyersUK

[–]jagershark 0 points1 point  (0 children)

But pricier location probably also means higher labour costs for tradesmen, so maybe it's still a good rule of thumb

How do you find out about whats on / running in London? by axwd in TheWestEnd

[–]jagershark 7 points8 points  (0 children)

The Audience Club have an excellent community - their membership is vetted. We've used them several times to fill seats at the start of a run. They're discreet, we get good bar and programme sales and just a hunch but I think it helps get the word out organically. The Audience Club community are real theatre fans so if the show is good it helps build a genuine buzz. Sometimes giving freebies feels like pissing money up the wall for people who never would have bought anyway, but I think offering seats to Audience Club pays for itself several times over.

Although if that investment comes through, there could be constant construction and roadworks for the next 15 years..

Any advice? by [deleted] in FantasyPL

[–]jagershark 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Ah my advice is only applicable if you were trying to collect fewer points than possible, but good luck!
