Which dodgy money advice from your relatives do you secretly still follow?
We all grew up with strange financial 'wisdom' passed down like a family heirloom. Some of it was rubbish, some of it oddly genius, but which pearl do you still cling to?
Put the items in your preferred order.
A
Cash under the mattress
Forget ISAs and premium bonds, real security is a rolled-up tenner in a biscuit tin. If it worked through the Blitz, it'll work through a recession.
B
Never buy anything full price
If it's not reduced, it's not worth having. This is why you own three air fryers and a Christmas jumper in July.
C
Always keep a 'rainy day' fund
That crumpled Β£50 in the drawer is untouchable, even when the gas bill's due. It's not savings, it's principle.
D
Buy the house, don't rent
Renting is 'dead money' according to anyone born before 1965, who bought their semi for Β£12,000 in 1978.
E
Marry someone with a good pension
Forget butterflies, ask about their workplace contribution scheme. Grandma didn't stay married 50 years for the personality.
