She’s a danger you’re addicted to.

I’ve finally made appointments to see a couple of financial advisors in the next week or so. When it comes to money I only seem to be able to do one of two things, spend it (see last post), or lock it away in a bank account that doesn’t give me immediate access, thus forcing me to consider the consequences of spending said money as it’s in its three day transit from my savings account to my spending account. For a while now I’ve been doing the whole savings thing quite well. Thanks to the extra hours I’ve been working, I’ve earned a little extra cash and I’ve had limited free time… (or should I say limited money spending time)?

I’ve decided I want to invest my money. Yeah, even though I now have enough cash for that iMac I’ve been eyeing off for the last few months. See that mum? You should be proud of me. I picked investing in mine & Adam’s future over a shiny, new, white, gorgeous, new computer. I actually feel quite proud of myself.

Good job! What kind of investments are you thinking? I’ve got some shares myself, but I find that simply putting your money in a high interest term deposit account (mine’s with HSBC) can give you greater dividends in the long run.
