Member Info for Investerintheknow

Im sorry people, but I'm a low risk investor and sold my ISA position in the mid £7 as an insurance policy. if it continues to drop then I can buy more when it starts to rise, if it didn’t drop further - then it would have been small price to pay for security . I still own in a normal trading account - but that’s at 600%+ profit - so I will not be selling that any time soon

@Bernyberlingo - spot on ;)

focus on the ball/game not the crowd

Cev, we are both more luckier than most with our MOD/ARMY Gold plated , index linked pensions - it gives us a solid base upon which to afford more risk than others.

@cat GGP (greatland gold) is a uk listed miner, but they are Aim - and I know the aversion some have to AIm stocks. DYOR. Otherwise gold mining ETF.

Keep stacking gold - LBMA is being drained ! LOL

Goodluck all for later 9pm - I'll be fast asleep - rise with the sun'set with the sun !

'I’ve just panic sold my scratch posts and put into into Gold.' , good move, what mining stocks are you considering ?

and,, please dont buy gold ETF's - becasue my understanding is that hte physical gold can still be loaned out - if you cant hold it - you dont own it (in times like this)

Cev, There is no right or wrong answer - it is about your appetite for risk and certainty. WE - by the fact that we are on here can make adjustments to the advice given . Watch the chaps videos ; learn , adapt and then you’ll be able to answer your own question 

He's a really mellow guy who does it for a living; I watched most of his videos earlier this years (Im five years ahead of you ) and was wondering about accesing one of my pensions - This chap is wonderful . Enjoy

Only issue we all have, for those with private pensions not yet drawn down on, is the vast majority is invested in funds associated with the us. ...............................espectful behaviour that will effect us all.'

Kind of , but as you get older - you should be de-risking and moving the money from equities to funds (or super secure - money market). I once read , that the % equities should be inversely proportional to your age,,, i.e. you are 50, so you should have 50% equities 50% funds, that should change to 40% equities 60% by 60. (sorry If I’m tell you how to suck eggs). In addition - its often advised to have 3yrs money outside of this by time you come to retire - so that you don’t have to start draw down unless the market is favourable. I’ll try find you a like to bloke who is a registered pension expert on youtube ,,,, 'James shack' really useful :)

'Gold and mining being the only safe places for investment at the moment.' , You're not wrong :)

Alan Turin devised the Turin test – by which one might determine whether a distant respondent is a human or a computer. I think I might have devised the Vicky Pollard test :)

Tim, This is the last time Trump is allowed to stand (be in) office - its the American Law. It is this reason - why he is moving hard and fast. The Dollar, as the world reserve currency, is under threat (and has been for many years) - I could mention Nixon closing the gold window. While I’m not sure Trump is managing things well , he has a difficult job to try and serve the USA population , while also trying to defend the dollar (in light of BRICS) and de dollarization. The US has 5+ Trillion debt to refinance this year. I write this not wanting to get into a discussion about Trump/USA etc – since it doesn’t change what is happening; but I write it so that you might consider wider aspect of economics other than just focusing on the words that come from his mouth (no I’m not a trump fan, but nor am I a fan of any political party). Understanding money , sound money, helps explain why the orange one is trying to do – what he is mis-managing to do - which is trying to keep the dollar as strong reserve currancy. I focus on day to day trades - reading the news - I can't change the world ; only react to it for my own benefit :o)

'That was one fantastic movie 🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤣🤣', Was it a move ? ,, I thought it was a documentary LOL ;o)

.... and let me add, Trello, it seems to be the same NEW person - rubbing people up the wrong way - everytime I come on here over the last few weeks. But I think that person must have blocked me sicne they never bother replying to me.

No apology needed, son :) . Some one else is being trying to be provocative .

I might be being too suspicious – but a Russian sleeper cell bloke arrested in the UK last week, a Russian ship pilot aiming directly for a US military fuel tanker of the coast of Hull a couple of weeks back, I suspected terrorist explosion at a sub station near Heathrow, and now TimSmith attempting to start a class war on the Rolls Royce Forum - I think there may be some ‘Reds’ under the beds lol

Ay -up badlands, have your squared away with last weeks mini-rr- disaster ?

I think I prefered this forum when it was focused on RR with a little banter :)
