    You can't expect to win the CL FTSE predictor AND win on the premium bonds  :D

    Not sure how many you have, but very unusual now to not win if you have the maximum.

    Father in law just £50 this month, for once I beat him!

    I have 22k in premium bonds and to be honest this is the 1st time in about 6 or 7 months that I've drawn a blank.
    So I can't complain

    The chances of winning a prize on PB are 24000/1.

    Hmm, I just totted up my PB winnings in 2022, and actually the return is 2.3%. Which is not bad. And I'm, lets say, somewhat less than fully invested.

    Doubtless they will punish me for this in 2023  :)

    You can have a little play here to see your odds/investment ratio and also see how you compare with your winnings.

    So that’s you AND @CharltonKerry who’ve taken my guess for the December end.  Good luck 😉👍🏻

    Well this is for June end, if I were using all my knowledge, insight and vast experience (aka guessing) end December now I'd be forecasting somewhere just north of 8000. 

    @Rob7Lee can I please revise my June guess to 7745 to avoid clashing? Cheers
