Standard Life members - what are you doing?

[Bozza]

Seems there is a fair few of you on here who are getting your something for nothing.

What are you going to do?

 

[Barrel of Fun]

Difficult one. I assume a lot of people will sell pushing the price down. Might be a decent long term investment to buy up some more when the price falls to it natural (for the timebeing) level.

Still undecided. I don't think I am getting a huge amount though.

Have you got your form yet?

 

[Barrel of Fun]

Yes, but I only browsed through it and haven't got back to them yet. Am I too late?

 

[jonogulls]

I think the deal's pretty shit to be honest. Didn't we get offered a load more money a few years ago?

 

[Jello]

not eligible for any freebies but can buy some with a 5%discount, but don't think I'll bother as min £1000

 

[Dave the OAP]

I am going to hang on to mine for a while. Next year its our 25th and we are probably going to do a Cunard trip around the Carribean, so I will probably look to cash them in after the first dividend time around may time.

Depends on the price of course, but a customer of mine in the City recons hang on to em for the time being.

The forms have to be back around the first week of July I think - does anyone know when they are announcing the float price?

Booklet says they hope to say by 9th July - then Floated on 10th

 

[sullyupthewing]

Going to hang on to mine to see what happens, take over maybe once they float?

 

[Leekbrookgull]

Reckon a solid long term investment,you could be waiting a few years before you make any decent money.

 

[Blackadder]

I'm going to hang on to them for a while.

If you wanna make some instant cash, go for it, my advice would be to keep hold, even buy some more at the reduced rate if you can, then sell in the future and take the dividends
