[kj] OT -- Sex Pis.. -- now, working at the Bank

[melinda grant]

i dont think pensions are all cut out to what they used to be,you put a certain amount awqay eac h month,for x amount of years,statistics predict that the final return on yours or anyones pensions will be considerable less than what was originally predicted to you from your adviser,its all a bloody con,but what is the alternative? shove yu money under the matress ;D))) well atleast if we al do that,we wont get flucked over by the banks!
 
how about an isa?  slightly more secure than a pension i hear,but not much ;(  any idears?> Date: Fri, 25 Jul 2008 14:40:21 +0100> From: ade at the-lab.zetnet.co.uk> To: gathering at misera.net> Subject: Re: [kj] OT -- Sex Pis.. -- now, working at the Bank> > LOL - spot-on!
