5K - Where do I put it?
I've got 5k left to put into an ISA for this year (Currently have 15 in Marcus) Debating whether or not to look at a fixed rate (4.32 Hodge Bank) or would it be better to still go with the variable (Trading 212/Plum at 4.98) I know it's a gamble and it's the classic crystal ball scenario.
