I have 50k I want to tuck away for say 5 or 6 years.
Where would I put it to make the most out of it.
Thanks.

    that depends - how much risk are you willing to take?

    As little as possible.
    I just want to put it away and forget about it and make as much interest as possible.
    I'll not need to be touching it until (I've just worked out) early 2017 to be precise.

    Over this timeframe you could look at investing rather than saving, though there IS risk...

    see an IFA.
