9 years ago i was looking to retire and wanted to invest some money for that
if had taken notice of this company i would now be getting about 34% of what i am getting now ..they are only ever interested in what they are going to make not the client and because i did it my way my retirement pension will go up with rpi fore has long has i live and my wife .
always remember when some one in funds say sell i always buy buy buy .
they are crooks

always do your own things or pick out some one who posts .
the truth ramp or deramp then you will never fail .
i warned holders in skr and a lot more companys and posts slate you off for ramping the truth

the point being this IF THE BANKS DO NOT GET BACK TO WORKING .
then the countrys will never get back to growth then the problems start big time riots
this will not happen THE BANKS WILL RETURN TO GROWTH and it will start next year

Well finally been filled - hopefully that is it!

Skinny, what's your average on RBS now?
Mine is way too high at 33.25 but I bought some time ago before the latest "Credit Crunch" and uro disaster!
TT

Hi TT, my average is 35.5 (42 for LLOY). RBS are in an old ISA that I don't add cash to any more, so I only invest on a sale or dividend.

1000's of staff let go next year.

The Government has diluted a key element of its crackdown on British banks in the wake of threats by HSBC to move its headquarters out of Britain.
George Osborne announced a string of reforms yesterday designed to increase bank stability and reduce the chances of taxpayers having to bail out troubled banks again.
The Chancellor said that he was implementing the main recommendations of Sir John Vickers, the chairman of the Independent Commission on Banking, including the ring-fencing of high street banking operations.
However, rules to force banks to set aside huge amounts of additional loss-absorbing capital have been adjusted in a way that could help HSBC, in particular, banking experts said.
Sir John envisaged large banks being forced to build loss-absorbing cushions equivalent to at least 17 per cent of their worldwide assets.
But in his formal response yesterday, Mr Osborne said that the new formula need not apply to non-British assets so long as the bank could show there was no risk to British taxpayers.

Assets outside UK can be excluded from the formula. so, it is not that bad.

The economical situation is very dynamic. North Korea does not need any mor weapon. Will move towards democracy. Not good for the big army over there. They should go back home.

From an investment point of view whilst it will make the banks less risky, future returns will be lower than those enjoyed a few years ago.

just befrore i go when is HESTOR now going to resign has we now no that it is the simpleton OSBORNE WHO IS RUNNING THE BANK is hands are tied what muppet would want that or is hestor only in it for is salary

A dull bank of the future.

I have been extremely fortunate in having a non interrupted working life, ie never unemployed or having to claim benefits, however it doesn't matter how many pats on the back or commendations you get, it is money that pays the bills and governs your lifestyle, and I imagine that Hestor is no different to the vast majority of us, he 'works' for the money, it is the best (only) motivator.
