Simple Finance

 I would like to think, I am a good saver. Over the years i have worked in different trades starting from very basic income to what i would say a reasonable income. During all my years i always tried to save, when i was earning less, my expectations from life were a lot less and more i earned the more i spent. This post is not about my life but more about what I would do with additional savings i and many people might have saved during these times. I am not traveling to work anymore which saves me small amount of money every month, some people might used to buying coffees every day but they can't do that now, some people might be smoking a bit less because they are not in office and there is no one to smoke with anymore. Some of us might not be buying lunches and going out to restaurants for dinner but now force to cook at home. We all might have had different habbits which we can't do anymore and saved some money. These are the ways i would invest my little extra savings, yes ...

Right now everyone is looking to invest and find new ways of making money. While new ways are always good but Old is Gold, old ways are tried and tested ways and some times they are the best! Coming back to the 2 stocks! Remember these stocks are mix of UK and USA based companies! Aviva PLC : Aviva is one of the biggest UK General insurer, they are so big that nearly every household might have either Car insurance, home insurance or their pension with Aviva. Right now they are trading on 2.6 pounds which is 30% cheaper than they were before Coronavirus. Before coronavirus they were trading before 3.5 and 4.0. Aviva is also one of those companies they give dividend to their share holders. Without going into too much detail, if you look at table below, you will see divident per share has been very good, yes currently gov has asked to stop dividents but as soon as that clears, Aviva will be at great place to start paying dividents again. year ended 31 Dec 2014...
