Life tips from the Good Doctor

I came into a little money this month. I'm not quitting my job and walking off into the sunset just yet but it is enough to pay off one of three credit cards and not work extra shifts to pay bills every month.

I don’t think I would last long in the sunset anyway…

Despite complaining about some aspects of it I do love my job. Most of the time. It would just be great to work a little less than the 46 hours/week most junior doctors work.

Anyway, with money to save I upgraded my Chip to a ChipAI account with 1.25% interest on up to £10,000. 

It costs £1.50 every 28 days though so it’s equivalent to just under 0.9% on £5,000 saved. 

Not worth singing from your window about but staves off some inflationary pressure, and there’s useful features for regular savers including auto-saving.

For the more adventurous there is now fund access. Although sadly no funds that aim at positive environmental or social changes which are increasingly popular.

Another useful find this month was £15 off UberEats. We delivered some Lucozade to a family member in a hospital far far away.

It worked and they are now at home. My dad always swore it could fight off anything. He's an accountant but this medical advice would undoubtedly hold up to the highest academic scrutiny.

I'm looking forward to a free cinema trip next month when I buy a lottery ticket. I'm statistically more likely to win a best actor Oscar but I'll keep you all updated.

If I do win my next post will be ghostwritten by Phillip Pullman. We will explore how excessive wealth hasn't changed me in the slightest and has, in fact, connected me with the plight of the common man.
