Obviously the castle. Others include Aurthurs seat, volcanic rock formation and also there is a very good camera obscura along the Royal Mile. The parks are nice with plenty of squirells.

Being able to self direct your IRA and other retirement funds into real estate, businesses, or many other investment types is a great way to diversify any portfolio and build tax free wealth. Great job summarizing this opportunity and I like the easy to follow graphic.

If anyone would like additional information, check out Equity Trust Company www.trustetc.com. Equity Trust Company is a custodian that can provide you the service you need to start making self directed IRA investments.

Re: Tesco: how to cheat your loyal customers

@Colleen: *chuckle* .. I've always known them as "schemes" which I don't think carries that much of a negative connotation this side of the pond.

Still, most of them try to persuade you that they have the consumer's best interests at heart, which may not always be the case ...

I just had to comment on the use of the word "scheme". In the US, a customer loyalty program wouldn't be called a scheme, because scheme in that use has almost a negative connotation, like a scam.
