A night out in the West End for the whole family
Set aside £29 every Black Friday and imagine the 4 of you front-row centre as the lights dim and the curtain rises at the biggest new musical of 2044. In 20 years, you’ll have £560 saved, and with investing, it could grow to around £816 – enough to treat the whole family toa magical night in the West End. Now that’s worth a standing ovation.
The small print
Just to be clear: we’re not actually selling this product! This shop is simply a fun way to show the potential of long-term investing.
Here’s the important part to remember: when you invest, your money is at risk. It can grow, but it can also go down, and there’s no guarantee you’ll get back more than you put in. We're not recommending any particular investment products here.
The original, “non-discounted price” represents the projected value of your investments by 2044. It’s what this product or experience would cost you to buy in the future. These values are shown in “today’s money,” meaning they’ve been adjusted to account for future inflation.
The "discounted price" is the annual amount you’d need to invest over 20 years to reach that final value. When you add up all your contributions over those 20 years, it will always be less than the "non-discounted" price. That’s because the growth of your investments bridges the gap – giving you the final value for “28% off.”
This calculation is based on the following assumptions:
- Investment growth of 6% per year
- Investment fees of 1% per year
- 2% annual inflation
- You make one contribution a year for 20 years, starting in 2024
