Congratulations. You've just won 1m pounds sterling on the National Lottery. You may think you'll never have to work again. Well, you're wrong

Article Abstract:

People who win a large sum on the National Lottery often assume that they will be financially secure for the rest of their lives. However, financial experts believe that the win would have to be at least 3 million pounds sterling before total financial security becomes a reality. People's expenditure naturally rises if they receive more money, and they may soon find that even a large sume of money is greatly reduced once debts have been paid off. It is very important to have a balanced investment strategy if the money is really to be used to maximum advantage.

Unravelling the mysterious world of high finance

Article Abstract:

Most ordinary people in the UK have very limited understanding of the world of finance and investment. However, it is vital to be aware of the principles of investment and how certain decisions may affect the individual's financial position. Many people have now become shareholders, but most do not really follow the performance of their shares. Others are investors indirectly through pension schemes and insurance policies. The best way to save for the future is through well-structured and properly maintained equity investment.

Big need not be better

Article Abstract:

Small companies are a vital element of the UK stock market, but generally fail to attract much attention from investors. Leading institutions, which wield a great deal of investing power, tend to prefer shares which can be easily acquired and sold off. It is well worth taking the trouble to investigate smaller companies, as investing in their shares can bring considerable benefits. However, it is also important to have a reasonable allocation of blue chip shares.
