Anyway those immigrants will soon take the good jobs as they're probably more educated than you.Comment

I can tell a good wine from a bad, but that's about it.Comment

I agree regarding Kenya - not somewhere I'd currently visit with the family.Comment

Cash? Fuggedabatit.
Gold? Fluctuates too much.
Property?
Britain’s Housing Market Is Not Responding Well to Brexit: Chart - Bloomberg
Luckily I never trusted pensions, have a small SIPP with about 150K, so no big deal.
Most of my investment was in UK property, 2 in the process of being sold, hope those go through.
I then hope to invest that money in Portugal which is still about 30% off peak, medium term plan to retire there.
Luckily the missus is most probably on the Brexit gravy train and I'm guessing I won't be affected much by Brexit so the chance to accumulate is still there.
How are you planning for the future?Last edited by GB9; 12 August 2016, 10:39.Comment

I am investing in a power station which uses the cretinism on CUK to generate power.
While assguru still posts it will keep my pension pot alive.
