the_stig 6,614 Posted March 19, 2012 Author Report Share Posted March 19, 2012 what if you had 40k to save for 2 year what would you put it into ...anyone invested any lumps of cash into good savings plans .. A pension on one now got another to come .. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Ratreeper 441 Posted March 19, 2012 Report Share Posted March 19, 2012 you could put down a deposit on a family house with a low mortgage and rent it out? It could put a few hundred quid in your pocket every month, pay a bit to a letting agent and you have f**k all work to do. There are risks, but it should be fairly secure...that's what I would do if I already had a house anyway. been down that path just sold one and the others just gone on the market -- i`m goin into holiday lets-- caravans for a few year .. got a bit of spare to inveast before i downsize .. Do you mind me asking how you managed to save the original investments up? Just for inspiration, I haven't got a hope of inheriting anything and I would like to own my own house one day, but the prospects seem quite bleak... Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Ratreeper 441 Posted March 20, 2012 Report Share Posted March 20, 2012 its from sellin on property that i owned and rented out and a small plot of land .. i`ve put some back into another buisness looking for a good return over 2 years .. had a couple of interesting pms-- just wonderd if anyone had any new slants on investment my accountants full of advice -- if anyone had any tried and tested investments ..to be fair i could just sit on it got another property to sell and will make a bit when i downsize more than enough to see my life time out .. Well that's my problem sorted then, just need to sell all my spare houses and land... You must be part of the generation when you could buy a house for £30k and sell it for £130k a few years later, people just don't realise how lucky they are. I need to save 20k or so to get a mortgage, so if I could somehow save £100 a month then maybe in 20 years I could own a house, at todays prices...by then I will probably need 40k. Bit of a lost cause. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
