No judgement please

I’ve been gifted £50k super lucky I know. No idea what to do with it. Ideally want to make more money with it but don’t know how. Any careers I can invest in? I work a standard job would love to earn more money and have a career.

Husbands bday

Hey mamas , my husbands birthday is at the end of this month and I always struggle with what to get him. Of course I’m a SAHM so I don’t have money of my own to buy him a gift and I feel bad getting him a gift with his own money 😂 is there anything you do to make it special other than monetary gifts?

Im torn between pick your battles and give i...

Owlet worth it?

Our 5 month will be going into his own room soon and as we have a 3 storey house, he won't be on the same floor as us. Just wondered if anyone had invested in the Owlet sock and if its worth the money for peace of mind? I know people sell them second hand on vinted too

So my husband is a great father and usually a great partner. We both had milestone bdays this year. For his, I got him a really fancy espresso machine. He's a coffee snob and was really excited.
