    Investments

    Hi all,

    I have £750 a month put aside each month for the January's self assessment bill. Its sat in a rubbish esaver account gaining minimal interest, does anyone have any suggestions of anywhere this could be wisely invested for a short term gain. (may internet searches return accounts where no more than £250 per month can be deposited)

    Unfortunately im stuck on a fixed rate mortgage with no offset option, I have played with shares and made a small amount but wouldn't want to risk a large pot that I will need come January! My thinking is premium bonds but have never had a return on them in the past.

    Any ideas appreciated.

    Premium bonds suck.

    So you are looking for a very short term investment with amazing returns with zero risk.

        As luck would have it, my own investment arm is about to issue a limited number of Oude Joris Bewdetter Guaranteed Return Bonds. Demand is always high and I do give preference to existing customers, but if you PM me quickly, you will be able to take advantage of this exciting investment opportunity.
