I have inherited some money. I am mortgage and debt free. I am 43 and have no pension although my husband does. What is the best way to invest £50.000. ???

    i think you have another thread going as I answered it there.


    But in case you lost it, I would ask if you have any other savings and investments? Pension?

    You need to have a min of 6 months spending in cash, in ISAs if you are a taxpayer. So that will take some.

    If you have no pension currently I'd put some into pension. And then I'd say look to filling your S&S isa allowances.
