GS having the last laugh yet again.
I noticed the six quid a pint in London when I was there. £14 for a spirit.
Praise the lord for expenses.
That was the going rate at the clubs in Ibiza around 2007. Must be about a grand a pint over there these days (not that they're open).
Amazing.
Why would you do that?
It's like calling them Wives or Girlfriends. Just no.Quote:
A nonce is an abbreviation for "number only used once," which, in the context of cryptocurrency mining, is a number added to a hashed—or encrypted—block in a blockchain that, when rehashed, meets the difficulty level restrictions. The nonce is the number that blockchain miners are solving for.
Atleast drop me a laugh emoji if you're going to steal my content for these mugs, you slag.

I joined Vanguard today and set up a s&p500 ISA thingy. Bottled putting in all my personal savings so just put half in.
What are the fees like?
I don’t even know. :harold:
I watched this video and figured it was worth a punt.
FTSE Global All Cap Index Fund Accumulation all the way. Just stick it in there and forget about it for 10 years.
Unless you specifically want a US overweighting.
I could be absolutely talking out of my arse here and have made poor calls in the past, but I think the 500 will be worth less in 3 years, maybe even 5, than it is now.
I would also say that buying 18 months into the biggest bull rally the markets have ever seen for a long term hold isn't wise.
Ah well. Too late now. Will check my balance in 12 months and hopefully it’s at least still worth £5k.
Negativity aside the monthly trend is still going strong at the min. Good luck :thbup:
Depends how long you're looking to hold too. After every market crash, the following bull market has resulted in all new market highs.
Not an ideal time to sink a big lump sum into the market, but in 20 years you'll still be sitting pretty unless something game changing happens.
Yeah, it might go down but it also might go up, Baz.
Change both those mights to wills and you've got it.
Ya, seems like the sort of era that'a well-protected from game changing events.
Talk to me about rolls Royce.
Are they going to basically double in value back to pre covid levels now they’re back in profit?
Hope so, still think I'm holding off the original mellers tip.
What platform are you holding in? I did more reading into IG and there’s a quarterly holding fee which a bit annoying.
I don’t quite understand why smith and nephew is tanking so quite fancy lumping some into them and RR.
I really, really like RR from here. Not financial advice and blah, blah, but looks good technically, huge potential upside and news is positive.
I've just bought some, so watch them tank.
Buy off the daily 7MA. Was at 106 when I checked earlier. S/L a couple of pips below daily 200MA, which was at 104. So S/L 101.9ish. You're a bit exposed with that entry, but provided a 10 point drop doesn't margin you or something, then should be okay.
I'm looking to set up a SIPP with any old pensions I have rattling about, but it's proving to be a bit of pain in the arse. Does anyone know of a simple way to find your old pensions?
I'm assuming my one from BHS has gone bye bye, but I should have 4 or 5 others from over the years.
I’ve moved half my BTC to ADA (Cardano). :yn:
Spikey, I've just seen an advert for Pension Bee. Priya, 31, who featured in it says she LOVES using the app. Maybe that's the way to go!
Thanks. I think that's the one I tried last night and it started asking questions I don't know the answers to. Why did I think this was going to be simple? :moop:Quote:

I'm now over £400 up across Rolls Royce and IAG. :chief: Will the former go higher?
Potentially. Just been awarded a contract by the US Airforce for bomber engines, aviation starting to pick up and they have some form of contract at a Nuclear Powerplant I believe.
Just be cautious, our stock market has under-reacted to Brexit in a big way. At some point some big companies are going to get in to trouble and there will be a sell off. Speculative holds like RR - which it basically is these days - will be the first things many sell. I'd set a stoploss few percent under where you are now so you can sleep easy.
Trying to remember where you bought RR and IAG. RR 110? Safe as houses barring catastrophe.
Yeah, RR at 110 and IAG at 190.
IAG is massively on one, but in the interests of position, you're probably better closing that when/if it hits 190 and buying more RR on a dip.
I can only assume the answer is no considering the ridicule I got when I bought my first NFT, but has anyone else joined this MekaVerse raffle thing?
Closed my gold long at 1813 about an hour ago as I needed a shower and to walk to dog.
Lol
Anyone else holding SHIB?
If it goes anywhere near Dogecoin’s value (15p?) I’m a millionaire.
https://i.ibb.co/nbfTHQc/SHIB.png
I had a look at this yesterday and there's literally no chance.
Current Market Cap is already £30 odd billion, which is up something like 37 million%.
It has 4 Quadrillion coins vs Doge's 131 billion in circulation.
And I don't think people realise how far £0.00004 actually is from £0.15? Put the numbers the other side of the decimal point for some context.
If you get 15p per coin, SHIB would be worth more than Google.
Other than that, looks great.
Don’t be using logic like that. Think about what I’ll spend my millions on instead.
TFL advertising captures the zeitgeist nicely on this. I'd estimate almost 50% is crypto investment related :scenes:
Where do you get your spread of investing advice? From what I can tell from this and memory, you're always late to the party.Quote:

Err, dunno? The two recent dog coins made me a decent amount of money but I never really put much into it. To be honest, I make the majority of my income (including my job) from gambling. :sorry: Crypto stuff is more FOMO than anything. I've some money in a Vanguard S&P 500 but not much.Quote:

Only Crpto I'm down on is IoTeX, but that's because the spread fucked me. Had I spotted it, I wouldn't have bought. Long term it will be fine though.
Luna still giving me the horn. I'm over 200% up since buy in.
Luna. Hope some of you bought in.
