Answer 2

I would want a minimum return of between 15 and 20% from a share portfolio. Mine is currently 65% but thats exceptional. Increase the value of your investment next year to cover inflation ( Growth and Income )

Answer 3

Real or nominal terms?

Put another way, do you want to get the same income in pounds forever, or the same income 'in today's value'. In the latter case, you need to reinvest enough to cover inflation.

Answer 4

After Tax?.......not much. You could give up work for a while but you would have to go back eventualy as inflation would eat into it every year. Add another "0" and you would be ok.

Answer 5

£500 or £600 at 5% in a basket of shares

Answer 6

It isn't much to rely on. Let me guide you how I did my calculations.
140,000 times 0.04 = £ 5600 so this amount you are going to get per year. give away the text 5600 times 0.825 = £4620 Divide it by 12 you get £385 per month. its not alot to rely on.
My advise why don't you buy a property. Because property's will double in 3 to 5 years.

Answer 7

Hmm. I've done some calculations and come up with £388.90. Depends what you mean by the question of course.

Answer 8

not improving the capital and assuming a 7% interest rate £816 per month
