What to do with cash lump sum?
I've recently sold a property which I jointly owned with my brother. The good side of this deal is that I'm left with a nice lumpsum (over £100,000) which I want to invest wisely for the short term.

Savings - where and with who?

Actually 6.5% seems like one of the best offers at the moment but can't…
