@RhodriOwen @lewis_goodall Take a look at space stocks today. They are down while SpaceX is up because people are selling them to buy SpaceX. So yeah, he is taking bits of pie from other people. Regardless, the money is in SpaceX not his bank account.

@tntsports Could be sugar for his diabetes. Some things are more important than tennis.

@Anthonylexton @Therichardralph @Jenx123_ Because there will be a smaller annual allowance for the cash ISA - £12k. This stops people using their £20k allowance for cash in a stocks and shares ISA.

@MichaelPBento @gofun23333 @commonsenseplay @CNBC He more of an investor. Tell me what is wrong about time in the market over timing the market?

[Sam @samjlyons]

@gofun23333 @commonsenseplay @MichaelPBento @CNBC Makes no sense. If you are bullish all the time, then why would you under perform the market in the long term? It’s the opposite: being in the market long term negates the bad times.

@Benito_DeSoto @PplRegretting Or perhaps it’s that people didn’t have a backbone back then and just suffered silently. Now they speak out against stupid fucks.

@APompliano Erm, the .com bubble springs to mind, no?

@Barabastr @matchpo1ntbets @perzianrugs Ok. Im wrong. Alcaraz is the greatest of all time with 7 slams.

[Sam @samjlyons]

@Barabastr @matchpo1ntbets @perzianrugs It’s the history book. Not the ‘probably in the future’ book.

[Sam @samjlyons]

@matchpo1ntbets @perzianrugs Greatness is measured by how you perform in your own era. Come back when he’s won 24 slams.

@HannenSeppe @markcecchini @tqlemd In your 40s, with 20-30 years until retirement if needed. Still risk on my friend.

@PolitlcsUK People aren’t happy with the quality of MPs, and their solution is to call for a reduction in their salary. What kind of logic is that. We have no hope.

[Sam @samjlyons]

@PolitlcsUK Not enough. I’d vote to increase it substantially more.

@CursedRaindrop @MiltonicMindset @Keir_Starmer Straw man argument. Are prices up massively over the last few years? Of course. Did I notice a 0.1% month on month drop? No. This is not the disagreement you think it is.

[Sam @samjlyons]

@Alex_Kozinets @MiltonicMindset @Keir_Starmer You’re arguing with the data released by the ONS, not me.

[Sam @samjlyons]

@Alex_Kozinets @MiltonicMindset @Keir_Starmer Everything else didn’t rise at 3%. Prices move independently of each other. Inflation is an average of the movement. It’s not controversial.

[Sam @samjlyons]

@MiltonicMindset @Keir_Starmer It’s data released by the ONS, which I believe is more reliable than my parents on national food prices.

[Sam @samjlyons]

@MiltonicMindset @Keir_Starmer Food can go down in price while inflation at large is positive, which is what happened. So yes, food prices down is correct.

@SophyRidgeSky People gravitating to status is not just a Westminster thing. It’s everywhere.
