The Amex BA basic (blue) credit card is decent to collect avios especially if you hit 25k in a year (that's when you get a free companion voucher when redeeming avios)

Though I'm finding it increasingly tough to reach 25k now that travel expenses are NIL 🤣

Best in what sense? Balance transfer? Interest free period? What?

cashback or other perks I guess

If you google it. Both the mail finance. And Sunday times publish a lust every eeek

Rotate through. Amex gold first (1yr only) and then transfer to the free Amex, followed by a virgin money card if you like (points transfer from Amex is free and comes at 1:1). You can tot up the points that way. Happy to provide referral for first card if you like.

Hello I just started my first job (I’m 22) and I need to set up a 401k for matching with my company. I’m really confused how this works because I want to try to hit the IRS maximum of $19,500 for Roth contributions this year. Maybe it’s too late in the year now, but it’s asking me to pick my desired contribution % per pay period, but I’m not sure how much to do because it says it’ll kick in 1-2 pay cycles and I don’t even know when the next pay check comes yet. Any tips would be great

And as for the interest amount in the Savings Account and Fixed Deposits, do both fall under "Income from Interest"? Or under "Other Income"? Or does Interest amount in Savings account fall under "Interest from Deposits - 80TTA"?

The figures are given in the screenshot 👇🏻
