if not in isa

brix
If a child is given money to purchase shares, it would be advisable to be in an ISA as I think tax would be payable at the parents rate of tax above a small tax free income amount.

How to invade Ukraine without invading Ukraine - declare parts of it as independent, then move in with an invitation from the newly declared (by Putin) independent states.

PEP started with a £2,400 limit

''you should accept it's a long term and conservative strategy''

I have put in the maximum into PEPS/ISA's each year - good for anyone to start at an early age if they can afford to do so.
Unfortunately the majority of my investments are outside an ISA . It would have helped if the yearly limits had been at a high level from the outset.

''rather than £72 with the Halifax.''

I pay £10.50p per quarter total, to have my ISA and investment accounts with HSBC.

''which means your dividends may be pushed into the 20% bracket at some point.''

Tax rate on dividends for a basic rate tax payer is 7.5%

SB was at 50.49 - now at 50.45 (as I meant it to be) - came close to cancelling as it edged closer to the price and with it being late in the day, but a bit of clear daylight again now, allowing for a drop and bounce in the morning.Prefer for it not to get triggered though.

''If LLoy had the resources to pay 2.24p final divi in May 2019 they certainly have it now as the balance sheet is considerably stronger than then''

I am pretty confident that total returns to shareholders in the coming months will amount to greater than 2.24p per share.

''That said if the BOD decide the profits are there to pay bumper bonuses to themselves''

The BOD do not pay themselves bonuses .

Kremlin already giving reasons to attack - they say thy have killed Ukrainian saboteurs attempting to cross the border

just topped up at 122.5p

A longer term investment into Lloyds shouldn't be determined by waiting on the mind of Putin to be made up.
Only punts for the very short term need to second guess, if they want to play that game.

'' My money, I should decide how to spend it and not these pocket lining thieves''

The BOD are employed to determine what happens with bank profits.
No small individual shareholder will hold sway .
No investor is forced to invest in any company that is not run to their liking.
I am content with staying a Lloyds shareholder.

'' 60 next target within next fortnight apocalypse notwithstanding.''

I think you should give predictions a miss.

J46 clearly doesn't know what quotation marks are for.

Then again, he doesn't know much of anything.

finish tomorrow .

Russia apparently have up to 190,000 troops on the border of Ukraine.
Field hospitals have been reported to have been set up.
War set up to begin next week?

''windy weather across the UK and Europe is helping to drive some of the highest electricity output from Wind Turbines ever recorded.''
