earning, i'd prefer it to earn monthly instead of sitting for a year to get an interest or reward or whatever
Forget about investing then as that isnt how investments are going to react. You need to stick to savings accounts.I am an Independent Financial Adviser (IFA). The comments I make are just my opinion and are for discussion purposes only. They are not financial advice and you should not treat them as such. If you feel an area discussed may be relevant to you, then please seek advice from an Independent Financial Adviser local to you.0 -
Put it in a Cash ISA if you pay tax, and and easy acess savings acct if you don't.0

And there I thought I was onto a good thing.
Most of the ones I found either paid yearly or not at all.
OP stated they were looking for something that paid monthly so it builds up, - thought this was perfect. I stand corrected.:p;)0
