    Mine doesn't mature until next year but as it was one of the worst performing equities and shares suffered earlier this year I think I will try to leave it invested so I ain't going to see it for a while yet :(

    Just thought I'd post so you didn't feel ignored ;)

    Well, I had it fully invested in equity with EBS all the way through. I got 23K this week (had max contributions). I'm reinvesting it long term with Quinn Life gradually by putting 5% of the lumpsum per month in. The declining lumpsum will gain interest with Northern Rock until it's all reinvested.

    Mine doesn't mature until next year, but in Jan it was worth Eu12k, but its tied up in equities and this was pre the recent wobble in the market.
    I'll just have to wait and see what its worth at the end, but planning on continueing to invest it going forward... It didn't hurt as much as I expected, and gradually increasing it across the 4+ years makes me think I can easily (or maybe not easily, but without as much pain as I might expect) load more on going forward.

    An anonymous poll would have been a good idea ;)

    No option for 'not yet matured'! :(
    Oh well, I guess that mySQl or ORACLE IT database you are building will have to wait :D
