No seriously, I only carry a Secrid wallet and and Orbikey plus my phone. That can pretty much be distributed around any outfit without dragging the lines.
Crud, after your recent medical adventures, have you considered a cf man sack?
Do assorted dead animals, when strapped to your waist, deserve man-bag classification?

I know what one of those things is. My wallet runneth over, mostly with cards and loyalty stuff I seldom use. I'm off to the Internet to learn about a Secrid wallet.
Sack is 70s couture from the House of Mother Nature, contents silicon.
Nice beaver.
Alternatively, set up a dummy account using fictitious info., email, etc. Which I do for 99.14% of sites I'm registered on.On the basis that I have to register to something to look around the site, I wouldn't bother and close the page pretty much instantly.
Mines a chocolate crocodile mulberry, but it sees so little use these days... all the loyalty stuff I've digitised onto my phone - stocard is a great little app... I just have my general use charge card and a few fuel receipts in it...
As for the site, much like some, I didn't make it past the register wall...
Noted can I ask you to take a look at the Instagram page then. I’d be interested in your views on the topics we cover.Oh, yes, thread drift, Wattie - sorry, I also didn't make it past the registration wall.

Even that stat. is false! I felt like using an exclamation!
Thanks for taking the time to look through things and for the thoughtful eedback.The home page works well on my mobile except the picture of the chap is almost completely off the screen which looks odd (I took a screenshot). Other than that it all seems to work very nicely on my phone.
All pages hang when loading. It takes sometimes 7 or 8 seconds for a page to appear when I'd expect most of it to be cached already, certainly on return visits. It's not just sometimes, it's very consistent as if it's hanging whilst hitting a tracker or advertising asset. I'm on my phone so can't tell you what seems to be causing it.
The first link I'm presented with, Find Deals / Offers, asks me to register... at that point you've lost me. You're just another site wanting to spam me and sell my details. I'm not suggesting that's what you're about but that's my instant reaction when I get to these register to see content pages and with your site it's not even a couple of clicks deep.
I'm quite cynical and there's quite a lot of "Editor's Choice" etc going on on the home page which makes me wonder if it really is the editor's choice or just something to grab my attention. It's perhaps unfair given the site's youth. I also clicked on the "Perfect Your Precious Metal..." link in related articles and it turns out it's an advert further shoring up my suspicions of a marketing site.
If I click on "Search Restaurant Reviews" there's no UK option despite there being a review of restaurants in London's sky scrapers. Also, "members" is strangely in lowercase in that list.
I like some of the articles and found myself reading them because they were interesting as opposed to just providing feedback.
I should say I am not your target audience. I don't read these sorts of websites or magazines so my views about content might be a bit harsh and skewed but hopefully some of thefeedback is useful. Good luck with the launch.
Cookies issue noted and passed up to the technical guy! Yes, the registration is a general concern which we have now removed.I don't know where you are in the build process, but I found the cookies preferences very opaque (post GDPR I only ever select functional cookies and nothing more) and the confirm registration link email went straight to spam.
If it was not a SM member asking for feedback I would not go any further.
Again I am one of the 95% and was curious what this site would promote, but currently I would not expect it is slick enough to appeal to your target market despite me not being your target market... I assume they are much more discerning.
The title of the site wasn’t intended to put people off joining.....I’m surprised you went to the trouble to look it up. Anyone can join, say, a Ferrari forum without owning a Ferrari and in the same way we’d welcome any viewers who find the site interesting.Had a quick shufti. Apparently I am in the target demographic (somewhat surprisingly, 5% is probably a lower income point that most assume), but that took rather a long time to find out as just about every Google search on 5 percenters came up with links to a group closely affiliated with the Nation of Islam. You may want to consider that in terms of your SEO strategy.
Have to echo the comments around needing to register to view deals. Immediately it feels that you are treating me like the product a la facebook et al.
Read a couple of the articles. Perhaps a few too many exclamation points, stylistically? So Ed Sheeran is worth £65,000,000? Does that really need three exclamation points? Same for the Richard Mille 'Evil Eye'. Also factual inaccuracies: "Fighter pilots experience around 0.1% in G-Suits" well yes, they do. So do I. In fact I experience 10 times more than that virtually all the time....
Anyway, that's opinion. I'd be interested in looking at the deals, but not in exchange for my personal details

Good luck!

Registration now gone, you might find some of the articles interesting as other have.By virtue of the fact that I never take landing on a webpage beyond leaving again quickly when Im prompted to a discount in exchange for personal data the moment I start trying to read the text, Im not your audience either...( data is personal the moment annoying, repetitive sales emails start landing in my inbox from computer generated algorithms ! )
I agree. I wont swap data for a look at the content. I understand why you want it and that Im not your target audience....
So I havent looked. What'd be the point ?
Strange, it was working for me.https://www.fivepercent.life/ site seems to be down at the moment.
We’re rectifying the issue re “loading times”Still works here, but I can echo the observations on page loading times
