Jealousy of what? I'm happy for anyone that has a lucky win on the PB's - that’s what I started this thread for. What I can’t understand though and what cannot or will not be explained, is why the forum superinvestor who constantly tells all how bad PB's are, places his presumably high-interest earning funds from elsewhere into PB's up to three months before he needs them, for 'easy access' to pay a bill in September when they were quite obviously easily accessible in July. Can you think of a reason for that? It doesn’t make any sense at all, more so for someone who's constantly telling us what a waste of money they are.

I can only presume that despite what he says, he does hold a small amount of PB's and can’t wait to crow about his luck but needs a back story to explain how he came to have money in them.

Utterly obsessed.

You know, I think you’re right but I can’t understand why he would be utterly obsessed with running down premium bonds yet at the same time buying them and posting up his winnings? It is strange behaviour.

Financial on-topic investment advice? How the fùck can that be "on-topic" for a start - read the thread title, post #1 and his early off-topic posts 4,7 and 9. Why do you think he's going all round the houses instead of just putting up a simple screenshot of his PB transactions like I have (showing no personal details whatsoever) which will just shut all of us up? I tell you what, I’ll give a hundred quid to a charity of his choosing if he does. It’ll be money well spent if I’ve misunderstood him. How’s that?

conveniently ignored of course.
