One thing you could factor in is that your expenditure through retirement will likely be less than inflation, so declining in real terms over time as you age. On the question of returns, a better short-cut to the answer might be looking at the real (inflation adjusted) return of equities over the long term (about 5.2%), then adding in expected inflation to reach a forward looking expected nominal return.

Comment on Is breeding cats a good way to make some extra cash? by Helen Nicholson https://www.mouthymoney.co.uk/budgeting/breeding-cats-make-cash/#comment-58285 Mon, 07 Apr 2025 08:04:46 +0000 https://www.mouthymoney.co.uk/?p=2175#comment-58285 The assumptions made here are astounding. Responsible breeders keep cats as pets and only breed at most one litter a year ( the GCCF limits the number of litters allowed to be registered per queen & limits the frequency too). Kittens are brought up in the home playing & living side by side with the family.
Upmost hygienic is maintained. The best food for kittens and adults all the year round are fed. Veterinary care is sort immediately if an issue is identified.
New owners are scrutinised and screened for suitability, certainly kittens aren’t handed over to the first person to hand over the asking price.
Responsible breeders offer a lifetime guarantee to help rehome the cat if circumstances change with a new owner and can no longer provide suitable care for the cat.
I could go on, but responsible breeders exist who care for their cats and in over 20 years of breeding I’m still not in profit. Just as well I have a full time career to support them.

I didn’t related how bad it was until after we married he was secretive – match betting has ruined our marriage and yes it helped us in ways im thankful for but its 7 days a week 52 weeks a year unless theres no racing
He down au where any time off – I some most my time alone when not working or with friends but he’s given me depression and anxiety as his mood swings are awful
He has anger issues as chasing loses from casino offers
He is always tired
He just is an addict

It’s lonely for me …..

Comment on How to become an Amazon Vine Voice reviewer by Mary Thomas https://www.mouthymoney.co.uk/budgeting/how-to-become-an-amazon-vine-voice-reviewer/#comment-53936 Mon, 06 Jan 2025 20:14:39 +0000 https://www.mouthymoney.co.uk/?p=9175#comment-53936 WOW. I never knew Amzon Vine Voice existed. Now I do it answers my inner voice question about why and how some people are giving reviews of products they have been sent. . My husband and I are very diferent. . If we go our for a meal and the service or food is bad his way is to not go there again. I frequently tell him that How can they put things right if they are not aware of the fact that something may have been wrong. You have to be honest and say what was good about the visit and gently point out how I felt was wrong. No accusations No anger just honesty. It is hw you say it that matters, I havent left many reviews but find that now at the age of 75I have all the time in the world and my interests are varied.
