How's your luck with Premium Bonds?

It’s interesting to looking at the NS and I figures on the big winners, most holdings seem to be recent and 10k plus. But one of the million pound winners this month bought their bonds in July.

its a fix!

Have you run over a black cat or something?

That was a strategic move

Does anyone win big with a 1970’s holding? I don’t know how easy it is to launder money into PB’s.

Zilch.

And another £250 this month.

4.5% in 7 months.

Nothing for us, nothing for our son. Again.

Problem is saying nothing for us without an indication of holding isn’t helpful as of you only had £5 worth it’s not a surprise, but of you had £50k each it would be disappointing

Very few people bought their only bonds in the 1970’s

No it’s not.

As interest rates fell AND tax on interest grew, many people put money into PB’s - hence the growth in the number of people with the maximum holdings

Hence my post last month about the number of people with the maximum holding - 1.5 million
