@100kDiary M&S is the 🐐

GM ☕️🇬🇧 Someone went completely balls deep into Marks & Spencer. £238k account value. 100% of their ISA in a single stock. Up £47,000 tax-free. No S&P 500. No global trackers. Just pure, unfiltered conviction that M&S is going to keep taking over the food retail space. It's one thing going all-in on Apple or Tesla, but could you ever put 100% of your ISA into a UK supermarket?

$SMH just keeps climbing

Insane returns for just under 2 years in an ETF $SMH

@UK_Compounder Yeah, I feel like I’m missing out from what I’ve seen and read on here

@DanTalksInvest We would both get a little something out of it! Trading 212 is genuinely a great platform though 🫡

I definitely need to move to a platform where I can purchase fractional shares, I’m sick of having to adjust my regular investments when prices shoot up

@UK_Compounder Thanks man!

@PolitlcsUK He should have resigned by now

🚨 NEW: Keir Starmer is flying to Paris this morning to co-host a virtual meeting of the "Strait of Hormuz Maritime Freedom of Navigation Initiative"

@UK_Compounder Imagine if we had a government that didn’t hate it’s people, we can only dream

"Labour wins vote to seize powers over private pension pots"... Kier Stalin and his comrades will have the "mandation" power to dictate how our workplace pensions are invested, should they choose to invoke said powers. The socialists are running out of money and want to use YOUR pension pot to invest in and fund their flawed green and net zero policies. Opening a SIPP has never been more important. Take control of and protect your investments. telegraph.co.uk/money/pensions…

@CJH938558014228 @trwsenti £285 with insurance is sensible, but we all know the vast majority of people are paying stupid money in comparison to their income. I know people earning £35k paying north of £400p/m

@DanTalksInvest @trwsenti you can buy a car using cash liquidity, you pay MOT, servicing if sensible plus repairs which can increase to £1.5-2k per year for the cheapest bangers around. I’m getting a finance deal which includes insurance for £285/month. work income depends on the car so cannot go without

£50K was a middle class salary 10 years ago. In 2026 it's rent, car finance, a weekly shop and taxes with nothing left by the 25th. It's now a working class salary.

@dougboneparth Or tell every company to pivot to AI

@MelJStride This is tyranny, but labour have roughly 3/4 years left and it’s curtains for that party

RACHEL REEVES IS COMING FOR YOUR PENSION This afternoon in Parliament Labour pushed through a change in the law to allow the government to mandate how pension schemes invest your savings. Here's why Labour's pension grab is so dangerous👇(1/7)🧵

Which stock do you regret not buying earlier?

JUST IN: 🇺🇸 S&P 500 surpasses 7,000

Looks like we’re all posting our all time highs today 📈 Almost 2 years in the game and now I’m a lot closer to £20k than I am to £0

@unusual_whales Shorting opportunity

Look at this. Allbirds, $BIRD, is a shoe company. It said it will rebrand to Newbird AI. It will convert its assets to "acquire high-performance GPU assets." It is up 600% today.

@JamesP728 That is one healthy stocks and shares ISA 🤩 Congrats James!

New all time high 🥳 I’ve reached £230k And finally green for Year To Date Double celebration!! Woooo

@Therichardralph Weekends are for touching grass

This place is soooooo quiet on a weekend....

@100kDiary I made those dumb decisions when I was younger and learned painful lessons, never again 🙅🏻‍♂️

The biggest wealth destroyer in the UK right now is PCP car finance. People on a £32k salary will happily lock themselves into a £500/month contract for a Mercedes they will never actually own, just to sit in gridlocked traffic on the M25 and try to impress people in the lane next to them. Then they get to the office and complain that taxes are too high and the government is holding the working class down. If you put that £500 a month into an S&P 500 ISA instead of a rented German car, you'd be a millionaire by retirement. Stop blaming the Prime Minister for your own terrible capital allocation. Your car isn't an asset. It's an anchor.
