Boring Money helps normal people make smarter investment decisions - quickly and painlessly. We're an independent business founded in 2015 to cut through financial jargon and make investing accessible to everyone. No PhD required! Millions of Brits have used us as a trusted source for savings, investments, and pensions guidance. With over 24 years in the investment industry, our founder, Holly Mackay, got tired of watching people struggle through pages of gobbledygook. Here's the secret: once you get past the jargon, sensible investing is actually quite easy. What we do: ✔Compare ISAs, pensions, and investment platforms with independent ratings and reviews ✔Run annual Best Buy Awards based on 26,000+ customer ratings and rigorous testing. ✔Provide clear guides and articles explaining finance in normal language. ✔Offer tools like calculators and quizzes to help you make decisions. ✔Share honest customer reviews so you can learn from real experiences. ✔Help you take action - whether that's opening an ISA, choosing funds, or finding an adviser. We offer generic guidance, not personalised financial advice (we're not regulated advisers). If you've ever felt alienated, patronised, or exhausted by finance, you're in the right place!

Not the most intensive, (which is probably good) and has a generally fair and accurate dynamic.

A great website and a fab blog
A great website and a fab blog. Boring Money takes often complex matters such as pensions and investments and makes them understandable and accessible. The website is very easy to use and the blog is always an informative and funny read.

Great site and even better blog
Great site and even better blog. It's refreshing to read informative, open, honest, funny, non-jargonistic (irony?) views on an often over complicated, scary landscape. I've been reading Holly's blogs for years and have been hard-pressed to find anyone else out there that does so in a concise, informative and engaging way (maybe also Finimize)

Fresh and fun
I've been a fan of Boring Money for a number of years now and have taken part in various research projects for them. What I like is that they talk "normally" about complicated issues; pensions, stocks etc and Holly's weekly newsletter never fails to make me chuckle with her tongue-in-cheek humour. Their website is literally bursting and the seams with so much valuable content to help you save, protect your savings and spending your savings once retiring.

A great financial blog…
This is a great financial blog delivered in simple terms that we can all understand. I loved the short description of the difference between shares and bonds this week:
Companies have two main ways of raising money to fund their growth. They can give away a share of the company to people in return for some cash. Equity. Or they can borrow money from people in return for agreeing to pay interest. Bonds. Some investors prefer bonds because – if the company goes belly-up – investors with bonds are at the front of queue to get any money back. And share holders are at the back of the queue.
