Why not consider setting up a monthly drip-feed into an ISA that can build up enough in a diverse global fund? Once this has built up, you'll have more options, and meanwhile start doing lots of reading and research.I am not a financial adviser and neither do I play one on television. I might occasionally give bad advice but at least it's free.
