    Following a full Cash ISA i'm doing:
    - Regular saver
    - More money into S&S ISA (mostly cheap trackers and high-income funds)
    - Individual high dividend yield shares in the FTSE 100 (a high risk strategy)

    I'm currently experimenting with:
    - Lending money to others (Zopa)

    I'm also considering:
    - Premium bonds (will hold up to £30,000) for later this year
    - Gold

    3 FlexDirect Accounts @ 5%

    I have seen in another thread you only get 5% on one account only.. not across multiple accounts? Are you receiving 5% on all three?
    If I've help in anyway, please remember to thank me :-)

    Thanks glory. Do you mind suggesting some funds you'd advise researching? I accept I won't take your post as investment advice.

    Cheers.
