So there am I, fretting about what I should do with a spare 12k Pounds that is sat in my HL SIPP doing nothing, I have to put it to work I told myself. Then I read this: "There’s so much spare cash sloshing around U.S. funding markets that investors are choosing to park almost half a trillion dollars at the central bank -- earning absolutely nothing. Usage of the Federal Reserve’s reverse repo facility -- a mechanism that’s part of the central bank’s arsenal for helping to steer short-term interest rates -- surged on Thursday to an unprecedented $485.3 billion. And with the forces driving the dollar glut still some way from abating, that figure could climb further, adding fuel to an increasingly complex debate about what the Fed should do with its various tools to keep a rein on policy". www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2021-05-27/half-a-trillion-dollars-is-sitting-at-the-fed-earning-nothingI don't feel too bad now!

If spare cash bothers you put it to good use. It makes good stuffing for pillows and matrasses. Sleeping on money is healthy. ... and if you really don't know what to do with it here my account number ...

It's just that the transfers fees are fairly high and I don't have any spare cash on hand. If you could just send over a paltry $86 to cover transfer and wire account fees, the funds will be with you in no time. Big hug, Rev Father August Goodluck.

Risk v reward. I am secure that i locked in at a favourable for me transfer rate, dont give a shit if it goes to 50 to the pommie rupee. Sleeping soundly in bed at night is all that matters.

On the transfer order just indicate that outgoing and incoming fees are to be deducted from the amount transferred. Simple. Greetings from Lagos Bangkok, uncle rubl

The poor poor man, only £165,000 per year, free accommodation, book rights etc etc, how does he manage to survive! Er, no rubl, the answer is not! We don't do political contributions, especially to wealthy old Tory Etonians, especially to pay their child support just because they couldn't keep Percy zipped. I'm afraid he'll just have to start giving after dinner speeches at 100k a pop, when he retires, my God, the horror of it all, such inhumanity.

How about a (small) donation for a wedding present from a grateful nation?
