Ok, so its not alot, but anything is better than nothing? I have £1k and not sure where to put for best return, high interest savings accounts aren't exactly returning much (especially on such a small amount)

Never had an ISA, I take it one of these would be a better place (as tax free) I don't intend to take the cash out (is a cash ISA better than shares?)

my friends put her money into premium bonds i know dont get interest on that but she seems to win the draws alot £50 a time

 

Someone goin to say it.

DRUGS!?

Probably the best return on 1k!

 

BTW dont listen to me I have been drinking 50% bourbon and dry for the last couple of hours....

Late friday night for me tho and doing the alone daddy thing!

 

Zo, if you don't plan to touch the money, take out a long term ISA which pays better interest that a cash one ( which I have ) that way they know you're not going to be raiding the fund on a regular basis.

 

I should've said sensible legal options

Thanks for the suggestions thus far

to be fair probably true.......

either that or just hide it under the bed

 

Thats where i have been told to put some money here's the link http://www.nsandi.com/products/pb

My brother in law has won a fair bit on them but on the other hand my dads mate put the maximum £30,000 and didnt make that much

But the good thing is you dont loose your money and as the intrest rate is shit its worth a go

least if you win once better then any interest rate

 

under your bed in a shoebox - properly the safest place the way this country is going!!

 

Know a geezer who had a fair bit of money in shoe boxes under his bed....didn't trust banks??

Anyway, when the new £20 notes started to filter through, he was in a panic. Constantly on my case to swap notes with him so he could re-save them.

Never understood why you'd do that.

 

Would that be Luke Neil?? and Porno mags too....

 

see my sig.

Nah, similar shocking hair though.

Luke wouldn't be swapping porn mags with me anyway...his "taste" is different to mine. I'm alllllll about the minge. He likes dockers, builders, poilcemen and people in Red Indian outfits
