How to get the biggest return on my money?

Question

where is the best place to put my money in order to earn some back on it, the highest interest account I have found is halifax but you can only only put your money in gradually over a period of months. I have £10.000,

Answer 1

Halifax do another high interest account whereby once deposited you can't access your money for 12 months, but after this period you have earned good interest. This is fairly good short tierm interest. Check the current rate available to you.

Answer 2

vote out all those who want to raise your taxes...

Answer 3

Asking a question like that will get you answers from people calling themselves "financial advisers" they will be out for their commission, avoid them

In the UK this comparison site shows you the best deals at the moment

Answer 4

How about putting half into 2 different ISA's. you can only usually deposit about £7000 into it every year so if you split it into 2 isa's you'd stay within the yearly deposit amount!

Answer 5

I hear Leicter and Alliance have a good account. Watch out for fees and conditions.

Answer 6

Many of the CD's which offer the highest rates are actually "promotional" rates.   You get the higher rate in return for agreeing to accept advertising from an outside company.  Very frustrating.  They may keep contacting you for years after.

And in the US, there is a bit of a crisis now.  The banks paying the highest rates have been closed by the govt....or they are on a "watch list".   The FDIC just closed IndyMac Bank in California last Friday.

Sorry to be negative.   Getting rich is a long, slow slog.
