banking, savings

[jake]

the problem is do you leave the money in the bank and just live happy, renting or buying a place over there,
There will be enough in the bank to out see me and out see emma too i do beleive, so is it best to be safe with no worries or put your money into something and worry if its not making anything, as the saying goes a bird in the hand is better then two in a bush

Can you be sure banks in the UK or any other countries are not going to have problems in the future. Keeping all your assets in a bank is not something i would do.

You should seriously take on board what Fred said about land prices in Bohol. That 25,000 pound lot will be at least 50,000 in 5 years time if not more.

its finding it jake, Ems is all for this and as she says if its not what we want in 5 years time then we shall sell it,
Years ago in my old life we was looking for a place in france and we looked and looked at places on the internet and papers then went over many long weekends looking at them 99% was crap but you did not know that until you was there looking at them.
So i do know we have to get over there quick and look too, but there lies another problem , what about seeing the family, well lets take them all to Bohol WITH US SO WE CAN LOOK AND ENJOY THE HOLIDAY TOGETHER, UPS SORRY, thats paying for another 9 people,
Am i making to a mountain out of a mole hill,
