Hi, when i was younger i had a sensible moment and signed up for a 10yr Scottish Friendly savings bond. It was only for £25/month, so come March when it matures i will have paid in £3k.Anyone have any idea what the value maybe?

You Kidding me? Surely i will at least get back what i put in?

Investments can go down as well as up, my brother lost 1500 when he cashed in one of his isas

It's a bond, you'll be in profit - unless the company went kaput!

Think a little profit was guaranteed Chilly, any ideas what i am looking at.

SNOOCH,
your scottish friendly assurance brochure would have said

"Projected returns for illustration only. Remember your original investment is not guaranteed and you could get back less than the amounts shown"

hope this helps.
