Personally I would remember that there's no such thing as a free lunch. Investing in some 'too good to be true' Bank Of Toytown might work for a short while, but in the long term it will probably turn to $hit.....

I still view much of the City as those awful little creeps with red braces and 911s who were the children of Thatcher-greed in the 1980s until the Great Storm prevented many of them getting to work on Friday 16th October 1987 - so with positions left open all over the weekend they were too late to survive a 10% FTSE crash on Monday.....

Ah well. The portfolio made £1804 today. I wish it'd do that every day! Plus the ISA/PEP made another £2912 - which is nice! The Dow Jones closed about 4.7% up, so hopefully..........
