Even after half a bottle, I couldn't see that investing in Orbital for an upside of 6% interest a year over 10 years was worth it.
So I didn't invest and will cash out at the end of the month with a nice payday.
However, the £4 million that they were looking for all went yesterday.
A combination of people rolling over their investments and new money.
My issue with the 6% is that it seems low for something that is risky and if it does pay off, the investors will make a lot more.
If it fails (as is want) you don't have the protection that the EIS investors have and all your money will be gone.
Furthermore, if you want a 6% return you can invest in a nice renewable energy fund and not have to worry or think about it.
Anyone here invest?
