Take a few weekends or evenings to find a good investment basics website (I would suggest the articles on investopedia.org) and really get to know the stock market. Take out some books from the library. Read everything you can about it. Start watching business shows on TV... and then start investing in the stock market.

If you are considering mutual funds, I would go with Indexes instead. They are basically a collection of diversified stocks the same way as a mutual fund, but you aren't paying someone fees to manage it.

You can do a lot better than a 4% savings account.

Split it up in to two high interest savings accounts.

Make sure you are careful with the institution you choose to look after your money. Northern Rock is not the only bank to be feeling a squeeze. Choose one with good reserves and good liquidity - not always the one paying the highest rate of interest.. because I would not want to risk relying on any UK government protection scheme in this climate.

Alternatively see an IFA (but also use your own reasoning and intelligence.... be careful not to be drawn in to anything too risky investment wise - depends on your attitude to risk)

Investing in mutual fund is really good idea..You can really get a good income on investing in mutual fund..It's as safe as saving your money in your bank.. Just take a look at the below link to learn more tips regarding mutual fund....


Smart Investor®
Invest this money smartly and receive a monthly income from it.
Getting 1-1.5% per month is real.
Some of the European banks offer 7% to 14% APR (3-5 years deposits).
If you invest £27,000 at 14% APR, you will get back £51,986.19 in 5 years.

Try to invest in someones business. You may receive up to 20-24% guaranteed interest a year. You can receive 1.5-2% income monthly (£405-540).
I run my own business and my net profit is over 5% a month.

Email me at investment4us@hotmail.com and I'll give you a valuable advice if you are serious about investing.

Best of luck!

27,000 pounds is quite a lot of money if you only want to take enough interest from it to pay a few bills. Just off the top of my head, the safest way to do that is to open up a money market account, which pay you interest around 4.5% now (at least in the US). You can take that money out any time, unlike a CD, where it's locked up for 6 months or a year or whatever.

If you want no or little risk then you should opt for a high-interest Account, such as the Halifax's Web E-saver. Part of your money could go into a Cash ISA, so you would receive the gross interest on that portion of the money.

If you are willing to commit to investing for five years or more, then you could look at funds, such as INVESCO Perpetual's Monthly Income Plus or Schroder's Income Maximiser. These should lead to some capital growth on your investment, which you will not get, if you are withdrawing all the interest from the Halifax These Income funds are designed to deliver a consistent and rising income over the medium to long-term.

You can pursue both strategies, of course, so ask an Independent Financial Adviser to design an Income Portfolio for you.

I would divide this into five mutual funds with 5000 each. For the mutual funds I'd have one in emerging markets, several large cap fund, and another interational fund. I invest with Charles Schwab and I do my own research on their site and I only get the no load/fee mutual funds. I bought umemx which has done very well and some others that do slightly better than the S&P.

Put the 2000 remainder in two CDs that mature at different dates.
