'I wasn't going to bite but I guess I have a little. Have you tried taking specialist advice on where to put your money over the last 4 years? I have a pot with Standard life "experts" which is almost breaking even and Scottish Widows "experts" that is 30% down. My early retirement of several years ago isn't as comfortable as is could be due to world events and the actions
of so called financial experts. When needs must no-one can look after your money as well as you can if you put your mind to it. But again that largely depends on our life experiences and willingness to keep an open mind and learn by mistakes. I'm almost interested to hear what gives you the sheltered view you expressed but I won't ask. Good luck.'
Hi , thanks for the reply. In terms of specialist advice I didn't just mean it terms of where to allocate a large sum of capital but the aspects aspects like taxation, inheritance, etc.
'Wolfofwarks - strange comment, I'm struggling to comprehend your thoughts there, but then I guess they have been influenced by your upbringing and the company you keep.'
They've been influenced by my experience on here actually and the internet in general and how frequently people are caught in a lie.
