Alex Posted July 21, 2009 Share Posted July 21, 2009 Can't see any savings account being of use right now...As Carl mentioned - fixed term bonds are probably best, but you can't touch the money till it's done... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

True but tha e AA one mentioned allows closre/withdrawals with 90 day interest penalty which makes it different from the rest? Rich Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scooter Posted July 21, 2009 Share Posted July 21, 2009 isn't it sound advice to spread it around a little to hedge ones bets? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Max Headroom Posted July 21, 2009 Share Posted July 21, 2009 If you have 20,000 have you tried premium bonds. You are more likely to get a prize with the maximum amount. We invested £10K in bonds and we got £50 every other month, you could get lucky! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fifty Posted July 21, 2009 Author Share Posted July 21, 2009 isn't it sound advice to spread it around a little to hedge ones bets? yes no one should put more than 50 K in one place just now - also need to be sure you put in accounts not owned by same bank.

Carl_S Posted July 21, 2009 Share Posted July 21, 2009 Hey Rich, Can't remeber exactly what it was called, but it was an investment bond. The funds were invested partly in UK equites, Property, and a reserve account. Later I switched out of reserve and put it into the UK equities.There was a hold on the property account so that you could not withdraw. Best thing I did was to speak to a financial advisor and get them to do it. I recommend you get proper professional advice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
