We're still fighting the algorithm so please like, retweet & encourage your friends to follow us. Our engagements shot up with the tweet below but almost immediately began to fall off again. This is blatant censorship & the only way to fight back is to expose it. Retweet it 😇
The censorship algorithm has reduced our audience by roughly 95%, and seriously, who does that to a wildlife advocacy group ? You can help by retweeting, liking and following. If we're going to preserve what few wild places remain, we need you to get involved.

Why silence a wildlife advocacy group? The only way to beat the censorship algorithm (we've had a 95% drop in views/impressions since M Usk took over) is to encourage participation by asking you to like, retweet and following. Help us get the message out Retweet & follow

I try not to buy stocks I don't understand. That means I miss some big winners coz I'm too stupid to understand them. After a bit of research I still cannot understand S4 Capital. Plenty of fish. This one looks like a free swimming Moray Eel - best avoided.

This is one of the two sewage plants in Copenhagen. It has the capacity to clean sewage water from 750.000 people. It's so effective that people can bathe safely in the harbour. The waste is used to make biogas, supplying 60% of the gas needed in Copenhagen. Pure win win.

Good news doesn’t sell so this isn’t very high up in the press. UK mortgage rates fall to below 5% for first time since July thetimes.co.uk/article/bfe39…

$OCI #OAKLEYCAPITALINVESTMENTS Partial sale of Wishcard londonstockexchange.com/news… OCI's look through share of proceeds will be c.£45m. The agreed exit valuation, a c.37% premium to the book value at 31 March 2022, was largely reflected in the Company's H1 NAV to 30 June 2022.

1. Avoid lifestyle creep Having cars, houses, and material possessions is not synonymous with wealth. It is likely debt. Real wealth is often hidden. It is in assets and investment accounts. Buy appreciating assets, live frugally and you will be able to build wealth.
