Huzzah, I won €75! 🎉🥳🎊 There is always that feeling when you get a letter that it might be a big one!

Do you have em? Have you ever won anything significant?

Yep, practically all of it swallowed up by large pension funds, hedge funds and other investment vehicles.

To think, people are paying people to take their pension and investemnt money and put it tonwork. Then they just put it all in a pile and buy prize bonds!

My Grandmother gave us prize bonds over the years as gifts.

Had about 4k worth a few years ago.

My brother and sister the same amounts.

My brother once won €50.

I cashed mine out - towards the house deposit a few years ago

"Apparently" the rate of return on prize bonds is 3% PA based on the average payout ?

We have about 2k worth of prize bonds and haven't won a bean in 10 years !
