I’m sure the OP is grateful for all the cautionary messages advising her correctly that investing with a one year horizon is risky and contrary to best investment practice. However, if she’s going to do it then perhaps we should help with fund and platform suggestions for her to research rather than lecture her?

Why don’t you make some suggestions rather than criticise people offering sage comments. What if funds are suggested that go negative ?

I did…I also acknowledged that the comments are sage. If she’s aware of the risks and wants to proceed based on her own circumstances it’s not our place to simply admonish her and not offer suggestions.

See the first reply on the thread!

Duly noted…others have gone straight to lecture mode though.
