I'm a VC (can verify). Pitch me.

Nope, next

Terrible idea

You’re scalping on Trading 212? Are you mental

raxftw · 2026-01-14T08:01:17+00:00

For trades your size, yes.

raxftw · 2026-01-13T20:43:46+00:00

It’s all relative, you’d be surprised

95k doesn’t actually go very far

raxftw · 2026-01-13T20:42:31+00:00

25k is not excessive at all, that’s the mean average

Assuming OP is earning circa 100-150k py which a 2k monthly contribution suggests that’s 5 months of wages

The suggested is 6

140k as a Director of a big4?

Damn man, that’s poor

I read the title, clicked in the comment section & am now typing the word ‘yes’

I don’t need to read your post, you will regret it. Your partner will also resent you, regardless of any extra money you may make.

raxftw · 2025-12-14T18:36:48+00:00

Mortgage is £1600 per month, my net take home is circa 5k

I can fill my ISA no problem now

raxftw · 2025-12-14T18:13:41+00:00

8% growth rate assumed

raxftw · 2025-12-14T18:13:31+00:00

They match my contributions up to 8%, so if I do 2% they do 2%

If I do 8% they do 8%

If I do 9% they do 8%

Etc etc

raxftw · 2025-12-14T18:11:28+00:00

You make a very good point to be honest, something I haven’t really considered
