    I'm glad i'm totally ignorant about all this stuff and just know how much money I have each month, how much I can spend and how much I should save. Think i'd be worrying far too much if not.

    Roll on Vegas in 5 weeks to spunk money here there and everywhere. FTSE, schmutsey.

    you should all worry as if you have any type of savings outside of bank deposits - personal pension/company pension/endowment/isa (non cash) then you all have a stake in the stock market.

    only lucky beggars will be those in final salary pensions - but I expect most of those have closed unless you are a civil servant, local gov or NHS worker.

    I think it was the bloke who started with one shed and then - having successfully invested in gold - managed to get himself another shed!

    Gold is at a near all time high in sterling.Gold will go to £3000 per ounce in two years and you can take that to the bank.The paper price of gold(spot) is of no consequence,You cant hardly get hold of any and they are queing round the block to buy it The premium is $100 at least over spot.
