A NIGHT OF MONEY

WEDNESDAY 12th NOVEMBER

The first Wednesday night session this year is dedicated to Money!

Mattioli Woods is one of our sponsors and they donate £50 per year to have their logo and a link to their website on our website.

Adrian Mee, from Mattioli Woods, has kindly offered to come to one of our ‘Wednesday Nights’ to give us the benefit of his wisdom and try to explain what is happening in the financial world, including where all the billions have gone and where Gordon is getting all the billions from to bail the banks out. He will, no doubt, also do his best to answer any of your questions.

With his Mattioli Woods hat on he will explain the tremendous advantages of Self Administered Pension Schemes and anyone who can possibly transfer to one of these would be well advised to do so. Just imagine if you where in a normal company pension scheme and had to transfer your funds to an annuity in the present climate. Your pension would be halved!

ZOPA is also a potential sponsor to our club. Click on their logo on our website. If there is time, John Wilber will explain how it works and how you can get a loan at a lower rate or lend money at a higher rate by cutting out the ‘middle man’, i.e. the bank

So, don’t miss Wednesday 12 November at 8pm in the club house. If you find everything about money a bit boring you can always help swell the bar profits!
