Re: Thanks!
I’m glad you have been lucky with your stocks. And, most importantly, that you can sleep at night. Good for you.

Thanks!
I've been so lucky with stocks. But I use NO leverage. I could make more, but at least I sleep at nights. Steve.

I have found trusts are more reliable but the cost of living is becoming worse consistently.
My nephew takes a lodger. My choice would be a moderately young person in a decent occupation.
