yes, although if you kept some of it easy access you could invest in the next tranche of NSI ILSCs is some come available in march/april. Thesze give you guaranteed interest above inflation plus are tax free unlike reg savings accts.
Have you got any equity exposure? Pensions? Generally (apart from ILSCs) cash does not outperform inflation so your buying power shrinks.0
