At one time I had about £50000 in premium bonds. I would win regularly but it was always £50.

So £600 a year. A return of 1.2%.

Pretty piss poor really.

Invest it in a classic car instead.

....or was it £20000?

Long time ago now.

Yes......the smart money will invest in a Signum before prices start to rise. Expect to see the first £30000 Signum by 2021.

my one Premium Bond was a christening present, 50 years ago. It has paid out over £500, although nothing for the last 25 years, which is a pretty good return on the £5 it cost. My sister has had nothing from hers.

Just remembered after reading your post.......I have a single premium bond from 1967 somewhere.....but where?

Don't think you can buy single bonds in 2020.

I've had some for a million years, never won a penny.

Everyone I know with some win small amounts regularly, earning between 1.2 and 1.4%.
