Our Friday prompt for Stream of Consciousness Saturday is “the last piece of mail you received.” Talk about the subject of the last piece of physical mail you received, i.e. a gas bill–talk about gas, not the bill itself. Have fun.
Well this post has been a complete disaster! I posted it and somehow deleted it ! Eight people looked at it and it got three likes. ….All lost now.
Now I have to start again and to be honest I thought it was one of the most boring posts I have ever written. Anyhow as this is #SoCs I suppose I had better try and write it again.
The last real letter I received through the letter box was about an ISA.
What is an ISA :
An ISA is an Individual Savings Account It works like a normal savings account, except you don’t pay any UK income or capital gains tax.
How many types of ISA are there?
There are six main types of Isa:
- Cash
- Stocks and shares
- Innovative finance
- Junior
- Help to Buy
- Lifetime
Well there is a lot more I could ramble on about..
Plenty but I am stopping now because this post is so incredibly boring ! Are any of you still awake, I am not.
So let’s end this load of stupid tosh with an Acrostic Haiku.
I invest today
Saving now for the future
Always plan forward.
******
Well it’s not a patch on the first Haiku I wrote but I can’t remember what I wrote.
This piece of rambling stupidity was written for LindaGHill‘s #SoCs.

I still have one, but I’m not better off because I don’t pay tax anyway!

Some posts flow, others we just throw out there and see what sticks. I struggled with the prompt, too — took forever even to just come up with an idea! I say well done. 😉

I know, Willow. When my brain is dead, I can’t even write boring post. Yours would be 10 times better than mine if I wrote a boring post.
I try to understand the ISA, but we don’t have that account. The one I had might be close to that was Tax Shelter Annuity account. I put the pre-tax money in it as savings, it gained interest. I eventually paid taxes when I withdrew money from that account.

Banking is always biased to bankers and government! And boring 💜💜

Do keep telling them 💜

Yip, anything to do with finance is deathly boring. Glad you are planning and saving though.

Great haiku ending! (That’d be a hard prompt to do. Most mail is boring! Last piece I got was insurance summary. Ha! 😆 )
