Mortgage Backed Securities

AVOID AVOID AVOID

Have you been living under a rock?!!!!!!

There is no need to be so rude!  I am simply asking for advice.

It’s not all bad news mate, despite the huge financial crash lol, nah am joking, that was in the US not the UK in relation to these bonds.  It is actually a sound investment and i will tell you why mate because the banks put together mortgages and pass them on to investment companies who benefit from the interest the punter is paying even if the interest rates drop which is hugely unlikely they are still sitting pretty and really if you want to make idiotic remarks i think you should keep them for yourself

And the interest rates are set to rise this year again i thik

Apparently so mate so yer nothign wrong with that investment

Its a classic one and good for your portfolio listen your never going to be completely risk free in any of this but you have to look at our economy whatever happens the show must go on even with Brexit we are not as someone on here said living under a rock we will still continue to exisit as a country and as a nation so we will still trade, we will still buy houses, so nothign wrong with it

Thank you for your constructive advice!

This keeps coming up in conversation and I read the comments on here and I am interested even if it is possibly one of the most boring investment topics in the world loool

your comment made me laugh mate spot on boring but lucrative 

Haha glad

listen some of the most boring investments will be the best in your portfolio and yes this is boring but none the less mate it is a goodun'

you would recommend it then?

listen I ain't no financial wizz kid but yes it is a sound plodder like I am from a sales background meself and we always say the plodders are your bread and butter.  Sales superstars burn themselves out but plodders will give you consistant deals they wont set the world alight but you can rely on them to deliver time and time again just like this

thanks dude I like the analoygy

any time mate
