Seorge has the Right Idea! George and his wife have just finished breakfast. He is getting ready to depart to the office when the following conversation takes place — Wife: " George, take my National Savings Pass Book to town with you and bank this 5/- for me, please." George: (opening pass book) "By jove, it's a long time since you put the last lot in." Wife: "Yes, I know. I don't think of it for months." George: " Exactly six months ago was the last time you thought of it, my dear. Look, why don't you adopt the habit of banking a fixed sum weekly? If you had, for instance, paid in only a shilling a week since your last pay in, you would have £ I -6-0 to your credit instead of 5/-. and you wouldn't have missed it." Wife: "You are quite right, George, I admit, and from now on I will bank a fixed sum weekly. I know we don't miss the 10/- a week you pay in at the office." George: "Of course we don't, I have been paying in for a year now and it will probably surprise you to know that in June I 945, when we draw it out, that ten bob a week, plus compound interest at 3%, will be £1 10-3-8."
