    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).

    Why would you do that?

    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.
    It's like calling them Wives or Girlfriends. Just no.

    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.

    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.

    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.

    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.

    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!

    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.

    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.

    Anyone else holding SHIB?

    If it goes anywhere near Dogecoin’s value (15p?) I’m a millionaire.

    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.

    TFL advertising captures the zeitgeist nicely on this. I'd estimate almost 50% is crypto investment related :scenes:

    For reference, all I do is buy Vanguard ETFs that are tied to the TSX and S&P 500, the former of which is the Canadian version of the S&P. I'm not close to the world of stonks, so I don't worry about the minutiae since that's more likely to be detrimental.

    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. Crypto stuff is more FOMO than anything. I've some money in a Vanguard S&P 500 but not much.

    You'd have to be a retard to buy Crypto and make less than double what an ETF would net you. I only dable with Crypto, but my staked ETH is up 36% in just over a month (+4.5% APR to come), ATOM I'm up 3% (+5% APY to come) and Badger DAO is up 29%.

    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.
