Mime's a pint, please, Caran ;-)

I had 4 wins this month, Caran. All £25. :)

Ok Chris, it's on it's way!
Thanks Mamya.

[Caran]

Well done hc, I only ever manage one win at a time. But I don't do too badly.

[hc4361]

It works out at around 2.8% a year for me, Caran, which I'm happy enough with considering the dire interest rates available. And of course there's always the chance of the biggie.

Mind you, I have 4 premium bonds (yes, a whole 4) from 1958 that have never won a bean.

HC 4361, same here! It's galling when some folks seem to win every month and gloat about it on here.

I must admit that whilst it is always nice to hear of someone doing well, I am a little baffled as to why they come on here to announce it.

[hc4361]

Nice to hear a bit of good news now and again

[Lie-in King]

Nice one, Caran :-)

I am debating whether to invest more money into premium bonds or into an ISA.

Well done Caran.

I got £50 this month , two lots of £25.

Premium bonds are more fun than an ISA, but only invest if you can afford to have growth at a possible zero percent.

[SIRandyraven]

Sharona , Jackthehat - Depends on how much the person has invested.
If they have the max 50K , then you would expect a win every month. However if youmonlynhave a few then a win is a nice life event , so why not announce the good luck on here. However if it hacks you off then why read the thread ?

Sirrandyraven,my comment was tongue in cheek! Of course I am not bothered.

I think if I kept winning I would announce it to all and sundry. I was moaning that my two bonds have never won me a penny in over 45 yrs.

SIRandyraven, nice to see you back on here. I always enjoy your posts.
