Even if you don’t have the t-shirt, you’ll have seen the TV programmes. Why flip? The cost of acquiring a property is likely to be modest. As it’s a single residence, refurbishment shouldn’t be too costly. Completing the project shouldn’t take too long;…
The impact of youth homelessness can be devastating for young people who find themselves caught up in it. It can lead to a downward spiral, as a young person finds it hard to get or hold down a job, access education and services and rapidly fall behind their peers. Young people living rough or in precarious, temporary accommodation for any length of time are much more likely to end up permanently disadvantaged. Youth homelessness all too often becomes long-term homelessness with all the subsequent consequences that can have for life outcomes. Studies have shown that the average life expectancy for…

The Office for National Statistics has reported retail sales figures in Great Britain for December: Charlie Huggins, Head of Equities at Wealth Club commented: “The decline in retail sales volumes accelerated in December, with consumers starting to cut back on spending because of increased prices and affordability concerns. Online sales were particularly weak as the absence of lockdown restrictions, and the Royal Mail strikes encouraged more last minute shoppers into stores. However, the real test for retailers will be what happens in 2023. Pressure on UK consumers is mounting and is likely to build in the coming months. With many people on fixed rate…

A new car isn’t much of an investment, however – as soon as you drive it away from the showroom, its value will take a huge hit. Often, new car buyers are shocked to find out how much their car’s value will depreciate.
