"We are on lifetime tracker. Been good so far. Keeping an eye on the seas ahead. "
We've managed to knock 7 years off this time, we are fortunate to have a good LTV ratio so were able to get one of the better rates available |

it will probably only go up to 0.5% next week to start the rises.... can't go up too quickly or it will just shock the entire system....

You've never had it so good! I remember rates of 15% - that's when it really hurt. Fortunately it probably won't ever go back to those rates but a 0.25% only puts us back in the same place as we were pre referendum. At the worst 0.5% but hey we just guessing. Time will tell. |

Does anyone understand what interest rates are and their relationship to bonds?
Or does anyone understand what a yield curve is?
Or how interest rates effect the national debt? |

Yeah, I'm reasonably educated on it!.
That only applied in the old days of ACTUALLY selling your bond though instead of just passing out between central banks .
Bonds were payers and shares were speculative.
Now shares are payers and bonds are speculative, it's a topsy turvy world |
