opportunities.

I don't have a large bankroll but it's slowly adding up.

Properties in Canada seem cheap in my home town. I can get quite a large home for about 80 thousand pounds. I am tempted to buy to let. Being international is difficult but I have family over there who could assist on the administration side. Rent it out more than $1000 a month coming in pay for it self.
On the other hand seems most likely to be purchasing a place in Italy from another family member. This is cheap as chips.

I need some sort of extra scheme to make some extra monies. But I have no idea what I am doing so this stuff unsettles me.

any other ways to make the most of relatively small savings? PM me your sort codes.

to meat and cheese which I have mentioned on here a few times.

I try to think before spending money what I would get for the same amount in trivial items. I don't even buy takeaways anymore using this method.

I try not to use credit cards either anymore, Anything new is budgeted. My TV for example is on the blink but still works. In the past I'd have ordered one immediately if I had the money or not.

I know, it's dull, dull, dull. But efficient.

there were other types Ed Hardy and that but I didn't like the style.

But pensions are SO dull. So very, very dull :-(

It is difficult to make saving sound cool.

[Sir Charlie of Nicholas]

It's all as dull as ditchwater until that magical day you realise you have been dull enough to trouser enough to get off the f**king treadmill.

One of the reasons why my life is simply a non-stop circus of champagne, cocaine and hookers.
