The idea of designing a savings plan can be a daunting one, especially if you don’t feel like you have an in-depth knowledge of finance.
With this in mind My Virgin Money Magazine has spoken to eight of its readers, hearing how they manage their money and were able to find a solution that best worked for them.
With students, retired workers and families all contributing it was clear from the outset that there was a great diversity in people’s requirements when it comes to saving or investing money.
For example, many of us are familiar with the financial strains placed on students. “Money is tight, but the little I manage to save each month I like to invest. May aim is to save for a house deposit,” explains 21-year-old Martin Smyth.
Similarly the challenges facing 42-year-old worker Sue Gibson will be something that many can relate to: “My new employer doesn’t currently offer a company pension into which they will contribute. I want to save each month so, I object to paying any more than necessary to the taxman.”
Speaking to the readers demonstrated the ease in which Virgin Money’s customers can adapt the way they save or invest using tools such as Premium Bonds, tax allowances and Virgin Stocks.
