The Retirement Thread

[PaulSB]

The PB app is by far the simplest way of checking. No emails, The results are live at midnight on the day of the draw. I don't usually stay up to check!! Last night I fell asleep on the couch and woke at 23.50 so waited till midnight.

I use the app for Prem Bonds - £75 today - and Mrs robgul got a £25 - not brilliant when we both have the max allowed. That said if you add it all up over the year the "winnings" aren't usually too far from a notional interest rate in line with the measly offerings on most cash investment savings.

Rob

Not so sure about that Rob. I tracked ours, two people maximum holding, over 12 months and it didn't match the 4.75% we are getting elsewhere.

Gosh quiet in here tonight. So another 68 miles in the bag today which puts me on 183 for the week. Pleased with this.

I was a little shocked to discover how much personal data I have stored on Google. Spent a happy hour deleting vast amounts but still too much. I think a password manager is called for soon.

I thought OSA is a sleep disorder?

No he means account and password details which Google Chrome so kindly stores to make my life easier. I had reason to delete one and then was very surprised to discover how many accounts Google is storing to "help" me. Most of those have gone now.

Yes I use it from time to time. Nice browser, I like the delete all data button - so easy. My difficulty is so much other stuff I have to do is related to five different Google accounts that I really need to stick to Chrome.

Fair enough

You don't need me to look after all your bank details then?

You'll not manage all of Donnie for breakfast, there's just too much for one person.

No it's a great offer and usually I'd accept but I got a very friendly email from the daughter of a dead general in Nigeria.

She's going to give me $5,000,000 if I give her my bank details. Of course if you have a better offer.............
